"Very knowledgeable and answered all my questions"
""Roman has completed a detailed initial search of USPTO records for us, saving us time and resource of applying for a trademarks that would likely be rejected. Roman delivered the project on-time and communicated effectively. Thank You!""
""I enjoyed working with Roman. Am incorporating and attempting a new venture for the first time in a long career in another field, so finding the right people to help do it right is important (and scary) to me. Roman was detail oriented, communicative and responsive to all of my many questions. His responses were thoughtful and elaborate so I was learning from him as I went, as well. Timely turn around and felt supported thru the process. Thanks again Roman!""
""Working with Roman was a pleasure. He found out the similar mark we were not aware existed (did our own search before) and thanks to him we avoided registering a mark with a high risk of refusal. He has helped us to choose the new name for our brand without refusal risk and successfully submitted an application. Totally recommend!""
""The service from Roman has been excellent. He has been very helpful and responsive. The initial 'trademark search report' from Roman indicated a medium-high risk. Because of that, and because I wasn't sure if the way I originally described the products was optimal, I wanted to tweak my TM application. Roman was always available to discuss the options, both by email and in calls. In this process we made necessary improvements in the application. The result is that I am very happy with our final application, and I think we've found accurate descriptions and classifications for our products.""
"I hired Roman to investigate and represent my company for an international trademark opposition. He was responsive, fairly priced and answered my many questions. Our situation has progressed to where the European trademark authority requires us to appoint a European representative but otherwise we would have Roman continue to represent us."
