"Alistair is a very accomplished and competent attorney. I am an attorney myself, but have no training or experience in IP work. So, I hired Alistair to handle some design patent issues for me. His communication is excellent. He is very good at keeping his clients up to date on the progress of the work. He gave good advice and was very quick in fixing an issue and filing the documents. It is my intention to hire him again in the coming weeks. If you are fortunate enough to have Alistair bid on your job, you should hire him right away."
