Excellent Patent Attorney!

Three years after my initial patent application I learned it had issues. When I started working with Jonathan he studied my machine-teaching IoT innovations carefully. I selected a great legal strategy from options he presented, he provided a painstaking rewrite, and this year I got my patent. Not... only is that patent now the foundation for our company, I still refer to it as we plan our international product release. Jonathan fought much harder for me than I expected from any lawyer, and he is more than welcome on any team of mine.

Excelente Abogado de Patentes

Mr. Olson captó de inmediato los complejos conceptos de mi patente aunque estos versan sobre un campo tan técnico y avanzado como lo es el de la tecnología criptográfica. Mi redacción original de la patente no se ajustaba perfectamente a la normativa de USA, pero él la adaptó y afinó magistralmente.... Fue flexible y altamente disponible para nuestras reuniones por audio-conferencia. Muy profesional en todas las gestiones que realizó, consiguiendo, antes de lo esperado, la publicación de la patente dentro del presupuesto acordado.

Kent, CEO Pintler Medical, LLC.

I have worked with many patent attorneys and a variety of firms: Perkins/Coie and Seed IP. In my experience Jonathan has been the best, most intellectual and complete. Personally I feel our business and our investors money has been very well served by his effort and output. One of the best decisions ...our business has made. 2020 Pintler will engage Jonathan again as we move ahead with another innovation for healthcare.

Patent Attorney

I have worked closely with Jonathan on patent matters. Jonathan is thorough and brings a deep technical understanding to complex topics including blockchain, software, and mechanical assemblies. In each case, Jonathan thoroughly documents the client's material and carefully crafts claims. He obtains ...issued patents which are valuable assets without undue expense or time.

Patent Attorney with All the Best Attributes

I have a product idea that I might want to patent. Jonathan came highly recommended so I called him, and I’m really happy I did. I was pleasantly surprised how thorough and candid he was in his explanation of my options, the risks, and possible benefits of patenting. He was very genuine and did ...not try to sell me at all. Jonathan offered information to support my success and to help save money. While I am still in the early stages with my idea, I am hopeful I will find a way to work with him in the near future. When it comes time to patent my product, I want to work alongside an accomplished attorney of Jonathan's caliber.
