Mr. Leyendecker assisted me in filing a patent application in the spring of 2018. He is extremely knowledgeable in his field. Mr. Leyendecker is very easy to work with and pays great attention to details. His service was prompt and his professional expertise left nothing to be desired. Also, the entire office staff was courteous and friendly. I am very satisfied with the service I have received. Thank you, Mr. Leyendecker!

Had a wonderful experience with Leyendecker & Lemire and wholeheartedly recommend them. Peter helped me review and amend an employment contract with impossibly short notice. I called and spoke with Peter the same day and by the following morning the contract was finished. Couldn’t be more grateful for their prompt and polite service!

I was able to get an appointment very quickly to speak with an attorney. Via phone, I received a competent and detailed answer to my tradename question. Everyone was polite and professional! I definitely recommend!

The staff (Heather and Kurt) were very friendly and approachable. My issues were all addressed in a very professional and knowledgeable manner. I wouldn't hesitate to use them again for future needs.

Follow-up to my review of 12-19-2016. My application has now been filed under the PCT. I did most of the writing of the Specification, but it was Kurt's advice and guidance that made the document comprehensible and really solid as far as the IP. I simply could not have done this quality of a write-up without that help, and I am greatly appreciative. I got all that I hoped for after that initial meeting, and I highly recommend Kurt.

I am a newbie at inventing and patenting. To me the patent process is a foreign language that I just couldn’t risk translation issues with conveying my ideas. Kurt was able to decipher and guide my ideas in a manner that I feel will give it the best chance for a successful patent versus had I done it on my own. I feel confident in choosing to use Kurt Leyendecker and hope it will be a continued relationship for future ventures.

I contacted Leyendecker & Lemire to explore patent opportunities surrounding my product idea. I had yet to invest heavily in engineering and prototyping, and wanted to know if it was worth pursuing. I met Kurt Leyendecker after an easy appointment arrangement and talked through my idea. Kurt was extremely helpful and consultative. He recommended we start with a simple 'search and opinion'. This meant that his team researched all possible competitors and similar products, the patents that related to them, and what my chances were for receiving a patent. This was one of the best business decisions I have made, as the search & opinion revealed that while my product was unique in use, there was no design aspect that was patent-able. He also said that I could change that and gave me some great feedback. Based on this, I re-engineered my product. It is now much strong functionally, addresses several concerns the original did not, and has custom parts.... long and short it is now patent-able. I contacted Kurt again, and he took a quick look at the new design. We went through my options and talked about my overall business strategy. I now have a provisional patent in place that has let me protect my IP while also discuss the idea with potential investors, partners, retailers, and manufacturers... basically move forward protected. I highly recommend Leyendecker & Lemire for all IP work and will be using them for my own business going forward.

Excellent interactions. Timely and knowledgeable. Very satisfied with my experiences!
