Client Reviews
"Excellent communication"
"Great experience! Responsive, patient, professional, resourceful, dedicated and everything I was looking for!"
"It is always a pleasure speaking to Claire, as she is patient, kind, thorough and understanding. I couldn't have asked for a better attorney."
"Claire was fantastic to work with! We will continue to use her services for future work. She is highly knowledgeable in the field of trademarking, and we had zero issues with communication."
"Claire was great from the start. She thoroughly reviewed our job and came into the initial consultation with an understanding of the issue and a clear action plan to resolve it. And her delivery did not disappoint! She resolved our situation in a matter of days with a high degree of professionalism, and expediency. We look forward to working with Claire again on any future trademark filings."
"Claire is very knowledgeable in trademark law. I did my research before I looked to hire an attorney, but she was able to point out concerns with my mark and application that I wasn't aware of and provided advice to help resolve those issues and avoid having my mark rejected by the USPTO. She was able to answer all of my questions, was prompt and very professional. Once my business expands, I definitely plan to hire her again."
