I hired the Atlas law firm when I was wrongfully billed by a doctor's office. Alex worked hard to resolve my case in a way where I felt relieved of the stress and burden it was causing me. The law firm handled every step of the case with diligence. Alex called me and kept well informed which I really appreciated. If you need a lawyer to help you sort out any collection issues, Alex is your guy an Atlas is your law firm.

Alex Taylor, was my knight in shining armor. He successfully resolved 2 issues with rouge debt collectors. Alex won both cases, had the trade lines deleted and I received funds. Alex was professional but not condescending, respectful of me and the law. Before a decision was made, he would consult me and weigh the pros and cons and allow me to make the final call. I would recommend Alex for consumer legal matters. He is thorough and knowledgeable of the law. I am grateful for his service.

Mrs. Johnson helped me with my immigration case showing great knowledge in immigration matters. She helped, advised and supported me through all the process being always kind, professional and being there when I needed her. I can't think of any other attorney to help me with future legal matters but her. Highly recommended.

Ms Tamburrino is represented me in a personally painful bankruptcy filing. Upon our first meeting, she explained the process with professionalism and compassion. She has consistently responded quickly to my questions and concerns and has followed up with unanticipated issues that have arisen. She has made a dreadful situation less painful and continues to keep me informed.
If you are thinking about the option of bankruptcy, I do recommend that you consider speaking with Stacy. It took me many, many months - and many sleepless nights - before I took the first step. Looking back, the process was less painful because of solid representation. Looking forward, things become under control and the rebuilding begins!

Stacy helped us in updating a will for our elderly father. She visited him at his home and helped him understand the will process and guided him throught the rest of the paperwork. She did this in a timely manner and we would recommend her to anyone who needs will and estate work done for an elderly person.

Dennis was not my original choice to contact on Avvo, but he is the only one who responded to my question. He offered sound and thoughtful advice, and was very professional and direct.

Dennis did a great job in getting my patent off the ground and fully approved. He knew absolutely nothing about my product when we started, but it didn't take him long to have a complete understanding and to be able to prepare my case for the examiners. I'm not funded like the Boeings and Monsantos of the world, and it was quite unusual to find that Dennis caters so well to small businesses.
Knowing what I do now, I think it is remarkable that I was able to go through the entire patent process so affordably. If I went to the large firms, hourly rates just would not have been feasible. Not only does Dennis offer a flat rate fee structure, he even offers no-cost sessions occasionally for clients so you can bounce ideas off him. I plan to take advantage of this service soon.
While I'm sure he can handle big firms quite well, my review has to do with how he handled my case. Just couldn't be happier.

Before working with Dennis, we worked with a couple of other attorneys to process our patent without much success. What made the difference was the time Dennis took to understand, and immerse himself in our business so he could articulate our invention in a format that could easily be understood by our examiner.

We were very pleased with the service we received from Merlin Law Group. Our attorney, Jonathan Bukowski, and his staff were responsive and timely to our inquiries and worked hard to get us fair treatment from the insurance company. We received the maximum we were allocated to get and would not have been able to do that without their help.

I have teamed with Gil on about a half dozen financial deals where the need was for the drafting of various transactional documentation, with some deals requiring extensive research and involvement with external vendors. Each time the deal has closed successfully with no clients having opposition to the docs Gil prepared. I appreciate the fact Gil is personable as well as professional and approaches his client with a human touch backed by a seriousness borne of his expertise and experience. Looking forward to our next opportunity to team up.

Gil Selinger was wonderful to work with. We always felt like he cared and took the time to listen to our questions and concerns. He made us feel important although I am sure in comparison to other cases he has worked on ours was minor in monetary value. He was easy to get a hold of and prompt in his responses to us. Gil had a wide knowledge base and made us feel completely comfortable in the process.

Gil did an excellent job reviewing a non solicitation and confidentiality agreement I was asked to sign as an independent contractor. He thoroughly reviewed the contract and brought several key issues to my attention that would have jeopardized my ability to successfully operate as an independent contractor. I felt that he was proactively looking out for my best interest and protecting my interests. He was professional, timely and followed up to ensure I had everything I needed.

I have used Bill Isenberg as counsel for all of my legal issues, arising both in my professional capacity and personal life. He was always available to discuss these matters with me and to advise possible solutions, along with their respective pros and cons. When multiple matters did lead to litigation, Bill provided my legal representation. He worked with me in drafting the appropriate responses, and kept me informed throughout all of the phases of each case. Through Bill’s knowledge and skill, all cases that have been settled were decided in my favor. While several cases are still pending, their results appear likely to also be resolved in my favor. I would highly recommend Bill to anyone needing an attorney for any possible litigation and, in fact, already have done so on multiple occasions.

I am writing this letter of recommendation for William Isenberg in recognition of the outstanding job he did in representing my company as a litigator. Bill was referred to us by our company attorney and we were extremely satisfied with his perfromance. He not only prepared us well for our being called as witnesses but did a great job in cross examining the plaintiffs witnesses.
Needless to say we won the case and I would not hesitate to call on Bill again should the need arise.

Although we are well aware of Mr. Alspaugh's capabilities as a specialist in IP and patent law, our needs have been more in the general business, business formation and contracts review arenas. We have engaged with Mr. Alspaugh numerous times over the years as needs have dictated and each and every time he has delivered in an outstanding manner. We have had the unfortunate experience of dealing with many attorneys in the past but by far Mr. Alspaugh has been the most responsive, up front, honest, and pleasant one that we have met. We will continue to use Mr. Alspaugh for our general business and contract legal needs... and if I am fortunate enough to invent something of value in the future, perhaps we will also have opportunity to engage his IP expertise.

I am a small business owner. Mark Weiss registered my trademark and when it was opposed, worked diligently, expertly and affordably to defend my trademark - ultimately prevailing.

I have recommended Mark Weiss to friends and they have all been satisfied.

Gabe is lightning fast and thorough, and he understands our industry very well. He is our new go-to guy.

23 Jun, 2012 by Carl
Before I met Gabe I was skeptical about ever hiring a lawyer again. The idea of spending lots of money to protect myself against potential issues felt unnecessary.
Gabe took the time to explain to me, in plain english, the risks I was facing based on how I was running my company and managing my employees. There's no other way to say it, Gabe helped me clean up my act.
The peace of mind I now have knowing my company has taken action and is better prepared for a legal misfortune is more than worth the money. In fact, Gabe's price feels much less than I expected when we first spoke.
The funny thing is it's never felt like I hired a "lawyer." I hired Gabe.

We have been working with Gabe on a wide variety of contract negotiations and this has improved both our process and reputation with clients.
His work style while working directly with us is expedient, while still being friendly and informative. He takes the time to understand and clarify our needs before each call and his followup has been impeccable. When he says he'll get a redline to us on Wednesday morning, it's there on Wednesday morning. This may sound like a small thing, but it's the foundation of trust and reliability for us.
His work style when assisting us with outside legal counsel has been a huge benefit to us. We are not a large company, and while we strive to be easy to work with, some of our larger clients have been hard to wrangle. Gabe has proven to to have just the right amount of 'bite' while assisting us through these tough negotiations.
You want a lawyer with a great memory and attention to detail, Gabe is that guy. When Gabe assisted us with a lease review, he remembered that we had a dog in the office. We had never discussed this, but he had reviewed our website at some point and had included the appropriate modifications to the lease.
We highly recommend working with Gabe.

Ms. Davis was hired to obtain a trademark with the USPTO for my company logo. Michelle has in-depth knowledge in the area of Trademark and Patent Law; her keen insights helped in providing appropriate descriptions of the logo and the trademark was approved. In addition, she willingly helped with some other legal issues.
Besides exceeding my expectation in her expertise, Michelle has an easy going personality, and a generous nature. I would highly recommend Michelle Davis as an attorney without any hesitation.

Michelle was extremely quick to respond and worked within my tight turnaround time.

She made the whole process extremely simple for me, as well as fun - she is kind, cheerful and genuinely cares about helping people establish new businesses. I would recommend her highly!

I was referred to Michelle for some copyright work by a real professional in the entertainment business. I'm a lawyer who fools around with music, and I could not have been happier with the referral. Michelle laid out exactly what I needed to do to help her do the job I needed done. She was persistent and professional, and the fees were appropriate. I enjoyed working with her, and the work product was great.

Atty. Young has helped me on several occasions during my divorce and after. She continues to help with issues that come up from divorced couples such as, money and support, vacation times with children, who pays for what and when, etc. In my case alcoholism played and continues to play an important role in why I make the decisions I make. Linda helps to make sure that the Judge understands what is going on so that I may protect my children and make responsible choices regarding their upbringing. As a mother herself, she recognizes what is important and is willing to fight to get it for the children. I will be sure to use her again, as in my case situations are always arising!

While I've worked with many attorneys in a professional capacity, Tom was the first lawyer I hired for personal representation. And after an exceptional experience, I don't think I'll ever need to hire another lawyer again.
Dealing with insurance litigation is nerve-racking. And for me, this was my first experience, adding confusion and uncertainty to my state of mind. Tom was great in educating me on the process, and as we got into the case he was outstanding about providing regular communication along the way. He really made me feel as though I was his most important client, which, knowing what I know about the scope of my small insurance case in the context of his large and very reputable firm, I recognize I am not. His personality is a real asset.
And aside from his exceptional client service, in working my case Tom demonstrated mastery of his craft. He was able to accelerate the proceedings of the insurance case and negotiated a favorable settlement that, quite honestly, exceeded my every expectation.
While I hope it's in better circumstances for me, I will absolutely hire Tom again. And you should too. You won't be disappointed.

When a credit card company unlawfully (and unexpectedly) seized all my accounts and assets I thought that I was done for. I was referred to Michael the same day. He took on my case, researched and prepared without hesitation. The next day Michael showed up to court - prepared with a great strategy and won my case! Resulting in my assets returned to me in full. I will always be grateful for his due diligence, and dedication to my case. I've worked with countless lawyers, especially in the past year and Michael has been the only attorney to show up, communicate his strategy with me and deliver with flying colors! He is definitely the attorney for any job.

I launched my company 18 months ago and Mike has been a major part of its success. He was not only extremely knowledgeable about business and contract law, but he was amazingly knowledgeable about the tech industry as a whole. His unique background in Programming, IT, Web Design, Graphic Design enabled him to bring an understanding of my business that a traditional lawyer could never do. Mike became a sounding board for new business ideas and helped us create focused business plans. He has continually gone out of his way every time I needed assistance and the turn around time and thoroughness in the contracts was outstanding. I would recommend him to anyone looking for a hard-working, brilliant, honest, trust-worthy and genuine lawyer. He definitely stands out in this industry as a leader and I am extremely grateful for all of his hard work. Without Mike's assistance my company would never have experienced the level of growth we've seen over the past year. He's style of lawyering is unique and he is always looking out for the best interest of his clients first.

Melissa has helped us understand our needs around intellectual property and contractor agreements for our small online business. She not only has expert knowledge in these areas, but she has an empathic skillfulness in explaining the process and what we needed to know to make good decisions.
We're looking forward to continuing our work with her for further legal assessment and support as needed.
For those of us entrepreneurial types wanting to do business ethically and with heart and often somewhat reluctant to retain lawyers, Melissa provides a sturdy bridge between doing business differently and taking care to cover ourselves legally.
We look forward to a long term relationship with Melissa as our lawyer.

At this point, basically she's our lawyer, and we'll be doing more work with her in the coming years.

My wife and I launched a new vegan food business in May of 2018. Our first product went on the shelves and sold out quickly. We had waited for our first reorder before shelling out the money from our shoestring budget to register our Trademark at the USPTO. Huge mistake!
Some person applied at the USPTO for our Trademark just after our product went on the shelves, and two days before we attempted to apply. We learned a bit later, after some investigation, that they had no products, nor any legitimate proof that they actually intended to use the Trademark.
We quickly hired Jackson and he wrote them a cease and desist letter. Their attorney notified us if we paid them $15,000, they would be happy to withdrawal their application and go away. Your classic shakedown.
Jackson laid out all the evidence, making a strong case for our rights to and implied ownership of the Trademark. He is a true expert in Trademark law, using previous case law rulings that led their attorney, who seemed to possess little knowledge in this field, to quickly and dramatically lower their offer.
The USPTO is a system of nightmarish bureaucracy that allows even clear-cut extortion schemes like the one we experienced to thrive. Having a Trademark Attorney as experienced and knowledgeable as Jackson can help you to avoid these kinds of problems. We will definitely use him again. Thank you Jackson!

Jackson successfully represented my company in the opposition of the registration of an infringing trademark and the defense of a related motion to cancel our registration. Jackson was experienced in working with the Trademark Trial and Appeal Board (TTAB), always meeting their stringent schedules. He was easy to work with and his fees are reasonable. I recommend him highly.

I have known Brian for a few years now, however it wasn't until recently that my company had retained him and his firm to represent us regarding a severe breach of contract situation, within the entertainment industry. I've always known Brian as an excellent attorney, but seeing him get to work first hand has been quite the positive experience! The man certainly knows what he's doing, not to mention his partners are equally as capable as he, with all facets of law covered. Brian's connections run deep, and he has been able to consistently hook us up with countless people, and opportunities for upcoming projects that we are producing. To say I am very pleased with his services, would be a severe understatement! Brian is by far the best attorney I've used (out of 3 others in the past) - HIGHLY recommend he, and his firm for any of your potential legal needs!

We engaged John and his firm on a large IP litigation for the company that had dragged out for several years before John came on board. John and his team got up to speed on the case incredibly quickly and efficiently, and was able to immediately dive in and provide our company with key insights and legal counsel. One of John's biggest strengths is learning a company's business inside and out, and being mindful of budgets to provide us the most effective counsel for any given matter. He never overstaffs cases or goes down unnecessary legal rabbit holes. It was a pleasure working together with him.

Upon joining our litigation team, John quickly and accurately understood the technology of our infringed patent and was able to communicate both the technical and legal aspects of the litigation throughout the process. I expected a lawyer but was pleased to work with an experienced technologist as well.

John Simmons the Panitch team have done exemplary work defending our SaaS/managed services e-commerce company against several patent trolls over the years, as well as performing transactional work such as evaluating potential patent portfolio acquisitions and proposed patents. He does an excellent job of taking a pragmatic approach, understanding both business and legal considerations, and all the while ensuring that billings reflect the right cost/benefit balance, particularly for a cost-sensitive early-stage company like ours. John communicates well, and is smart, experienced, personable, and easy to work with. He also is very aggressive and savvy in litigation, and his strategy and advice has always been spot-on and has led to successful outcomes in every matter for which we've engaged him. Highly recommended, without reservation.
