• Free Consultation
  Before contacting an attorney have written description of your invention AND a collection of relevant background information
• Credit Cards Accepted
• Contingent Fees
  Hybrid fee arrangements are available in an appropriate engagement AND only offered where a client has identified an existing commercial interest and a clear path for recovery
• Rates, Retainers and Additional Information
  Client cooperation is key to any amicable and professional relationship; and, where cooperation is unacceptable and effective representation is not possible. Client micro-management undermines independent professional judgment and is unacceptable for effective and professional representation
