Michael Ryan Cicero

I worked with Mike closely throughout the course of 18 months for a Provisional and then Non-Provisional USPTO application. I am an independent inventor who developed a product for a niche healthcare application. I had called and spoke with several different patent agents/attorneys and tried to exp...lain what I was creating, and Mike clearly was the most helpful and genuine choice. I asked him what the process would look like as I had no prior experience in this realm. Mike was extremely professional, as well as encouraging and helpful in his explanations, and took me on as a client shortly after our initial consultation. He was extremely efficient in hearing out and understanding my product, which is rather abstract as most medical devices are, and had an amazing Provisional application completed in just a couple of weeks. Mike is an excellent communicator and used his skills as a Lawyer, as well as his Mechanical Engineering skills, to paint a thorough picture and claims for my product, that led to an ultimate allowance from the USPTO. I was worried going into the Patent process, but Mike took the lead and always made sure that I was aware of deadlines and all of the paperwork that went into the process. We worked together closely to make sure that my ideas and goals for my product were always captured and made priority, and thorough on all angles . He even helped me through a couple of potential design flaws, and brought nothing but exuberance to the project. Personally, he is very down to earth, kind, friendly and has a great demeanor. I would highly recommend Mike.
