Client Reviews
""I use Brian for matters concerning an LLC that I have (in addition to my practice). I use him for business issues and intellectual property matters. I would rate him as top notch. I consider him one of the best around for intellectual property issues. I have referred a number of individuals to Brian. They have all had good experiences and have given him rave reviews. That says it all. ""
""I've been using Brian Samuel Malkin for years for IP work. He is very engaging, passionate, and responsive. Our company is in the high tech sector, so IP can be rather complicated; Brian grasps the concepts with ease. He has, on more than one occasion, worked weekends to meet our time tables, and he is genuinely excited to help us expand our IP portfolio. ""
