Mr. McCarty was very patient throughout my case regarding a family matter. He did great at thoroughly explaining the process and fair expectations to my husband and me. Matters would get complicated, considering the timeframe; however, he did great at managing communication and completing the case.

Shields Law firm and Andrea Koch are compassionate, knowledgeable, and the advocates you need when you're not sure where to turn. They understand the struggle of trying to get your child's needs met in a school that's determined to sideline you and your child.

My interactions with everyone at Shields Law Firm were positive. They are knowledgeable and explain everything in a way that’s easy to understand. Everyone was kind and respectful. I loved having Andrea represent us. She made us feel heard, understood our issues, and was able to be our voice when dealing with the fourth largest district in Texas. I never felt that Andrea misunderstood what we were trying to convey. In fact, she took my scattered thoughts and beautifully communicated them to the school and district staff. Before hiring Shields Law Firm, we felt completely cornered and felt that the school and district were only looking out for their own interests, not my child's. Only when they knew we were being represented did things start to move in a different direction.
I couldn’t be more thankful for their representation and won't hesitate to contact them again if we run into similar issues.

Client testimonials are often the quickest and most reliable way to assess an attorney if you don’t have the time to dive deeply into their credentials. What are people saying about them, both in the short term and historically? That's why I wanted to take the time to speak about Amy Dunn. I first wrote a positive review for her back in 2019, highlighting her approach to clients and the way she handles cases.
Well, five years later, I’m happy to say that my opinion of Amy has only grown stronger. She has not only met but exceeded the high expectations I have of an attorney, both in terms of my personal observations and through some legal work she has consulted on for me. You don’t often find this level of relationship-building in the client-business dynamic. Even when the line between personal connection and professional duties begins to blur, Amy remains focused on your best interests. She has a unique way of making you feel supported—almost like a close friend would—by standing in the gap and extending a lifeline when it’s needed most. While she remains professional, her genuine concern for her clients creates a sense of trust and security that’s rare in the attorney-client relationship.
Whatever your legal needs may be, whether seeking her counsel or even asking for a referral in an area she doesn’t specialize in, I would trust Amy wholeheartedly. She doesn’t embody the stereotypical "jet-flying, limousine-riding" lawyer persona. Instead, she practices law with a sense of purpose grounded in principles of servant and transformational leadership. These beliefs empower her to uphold the oaths she swore upon becoming an attorney, making it a moral obligation to conduct herself with integrity and civility.
Amy navigates the courts and communicates with all parties with dignity, independence, and humanity. She never rejects the cause of those who are defenseless, oppressed, or aggrieved, regardless of the magnitude of their cases. Her clients know that their struggles are seen, understood, and championed.
In short, Amy Dunn is a rare and exceptional attorney whose commitment to her clients goes far beyond the legal work itself—it is deeply personal and rooted in her values.

As a loyalty customer since 2021, I highly recommend Dr. Hao and his team to anyone that has intention for submitting their immigration application.
Dr. Hao and his team helped me got my EB-2 NIW application approved in 2021. Everyone document that included in the submissions package is well-prepared by his team. After 8 months waiting (no premium processing at that time), my case get directly approved. In 2023, I worked with Dr. Hao and his team again for my EB1-A application. At that time, my case is not very strong (low citation) for this category. However, Dr. Hao and his team carefully assessed the evidence I provided and prepared the submission package from a unique angle to show my outstanding capability. My EB1-A application got approved within 10 days after USCIS received my premium processing request. Immediately after this, I signed another contract with Dr. Hao to help me and my wife preparing I-485 because our EB1-A case relinked the priority date from my NIW case. We were then selected for an interview and Dr. Hao attended the interview with us as well. His support is very important. He corrected me some inaccurate description during the interview.
What happened at the end is we got our green card two weeks ago! I really want to express our great thankfulness to Dr. Hao and his professional team for all the support so far. Again, if you are looking for a reliable immigration attorney, Dr. Hao and his team is definitely the first choice for you.

I have worked with Stanley Law to represent me as part of a class action lawsuit. I Highly recommend them! From the beginning, their communication and updates have been excellent. They were on top of everything from start to finish. And I have to say, working with Laura was beyond amazing! Her follow up and communication was impeccable. She returned my calls almost immediately, and always had the information I needed. I highly recommend Stanley Law group. I will say, that with all Class action suits, you have to be patient, as it is very time consuming. But in the end, it is worth it.

The Williams Hart law firm is currently representing me in the Roundup Lawsuit against Monsanto. They have been nothing but professional since 2020 through Covid and many delays beyond their control. Four years have passed since I joined the lawsuit, but they have kept me posted every step of the way. If you are looking for someone who will fight for you every step of the way, Williams Hart law firm is the one.

Grant Scheiner was recommended to me by a friend when I found myself needing an Attorney. I was being charged with a felony and would soon be arrested. I was terrified and at a loss as to what to do. I contacted Grant. During our conversation, Grant was able to calm me down and let me know he would be by my side the whole way. During the process, Grant and Macie were able to get me a plea. The Plea reduced the charges to a misdemeanor with two years’ probation. Grant is very knowledgeable of the law, effective and very personable. I feel extremely fortunate to have had Grant and Macie on my side during my ordeal. I am incredibly grateful to both of them for their help. The Scheiner Law Group is the team you want when you need an Attorney.

What an Intellectual Property Lawyer Can Do for You
An intellectual property (IP) lawyer specializes in protecting the rights related to creations of the mind, including inventions, designs, logos, brands, artistic works, and trade secrets. IP lawyers help clients secure legal rights to their intellectual property, enforce those rights, and defend against infringement claims. They can also assist with licensing agreements, negotiating royalties, and managing intellectual property portfolios.
Whether you're a business seeking to protect a trademark, an inventor patenting a new product, or an artist protecting your work from unauthorized use, an intellectual property lawyer ensures that your creations are legally safeguarded and helps you navigate the complex landscape of IP law.
When Should I Hire an Intellectual Property Lawyer?
Hiring an intellectual property lawyer is beneficial in many situations where you need to secure, protect, or defend your intellectual property rights. Key scenarios include:
- Filing a patent: If you've invented a new product or process, a lawyer can help you apply for a patent and ensure the protection of your invention.
- Trademarking a logo or brand name: To protect your business's brand identity, a lawyer can assist in trademarking logos, names, slogans, or symbols.
- Copyright protection: If you’ve created an original work (e.g., a book, music, or software), a lawyer can help you register your copyright and ensure your rights are protected.
- Trade secrets protection: For businesses with proprietary information, a lawyer can draft agreements to protect trade secrets and ensure they remain confidential.
- Defending against infringement: If someone is using your intellectual property without permission, a lawyer can help you take legal action to stop the infringement and seek damages.
- Licensing agreements: If you want to allow others to use your intellectual property for a fee, an IP lawyer can draft or negotiate licensing agreements that protect your interests.
- IP portfolio management: If you have multiple forms of intellectual property, a lawyer can help you manage your IP portfolio, ensuring all assets are protected and strategically utilized.
Hiring a lawyer early in the process can help you avoid legal pitfalls and ensure that your intellectual property is adequately protected from the start.
What Does an Intellectual Property Lawyer Do?
An intellectual property lawyer provides a wide range of services to protect and enforce your intellectual property rights. They can:
- File patents and trademarks: Helping you prepare and submit patent or trademark applications to protect your inventions, brands, or logos.
- Register copyrights: Assisting with the registration of original creative works to ensure your rights are protected under copyright law.
- Litigate infringement cases: Representing you in court if your intellectual property has been used without authorization or if you're accused of infringement.
- Draft licensing agreements: Creating contracts that allow others to use your intellectual property while ensuring you retain control and receive appropriate compensation.
- Manage IP portfolios: Helping businesses and individuals manage multiple forms of intellectual property, including patents, trademarks, copyrights, and trade secrets.
- Conduct due diligence in business deals: Ensuring that intellectual property assets are properly valued and protected during mergers, acquisitions, or licensing agreements.
- Monitor and enforce IP rights: Monitoring for potential infringement and taking legal action when necessary to protect your IP from unauthorized use.
How Are Intellectual Property Lawyers Paid?
Intellectual property lawyers typically charge for their services in different ways, depending on the complexity of the work and the type of intellectual property being protected. Common payment structures include:
- Flat fee: For specific services such as filing a trademark or copyright application, many lawyers charge a flat fee that covers all the work required for that service.
- Hourly rate: For more complex tasks, such as drafting licensing agreements or litigating infringement cases, lawyers may charge by the hour. Hourly rates vary depending on the lawyer’s experience and location.
- Contingency fee: In some cases, particularly for IP litigation, a lawyer may work on a contingency basis, meaning they only get paid if they win or settle the case. Their fee would typically be a percentage of the settlement or damages awarded.
- Retainer: For ongoing IP needs, some clients may pay a retainer fee upfront to secure the lawyer’s services, which the lawyer then bills against as they work on the case.
It’s essential to discuss fees and payment arrangements with your lawyer upfront to ensure there are no surprises.
How Much Does an Intellectual Property Lawyer Cost?
The cost of hiring an intellectual property lawyer depends on the complexity of the case and the type of intellectual property involved. General cost estimates include:
- Trademark registration: The cost of registering a trademark can range from $500 to $2,000, depending on the complexity of the application and whether there are any issues during the registration process.
- Patent filing: Filing a patent is often more expensive, with costs ranging from $5,000 to $15,000 or more, depending on the type of patent (utility, design, etc.) and the complexity of the invention.
- Copyright registration: Registering a copyright is usually less costly, with fees typically ranging from $300 to $1,500 for most creative works.
- Litigation: If you’re involved in an IP dispute or infringement case, litigation can be costly, with fees ranging from $10,000 to hundreds of thousands of dollars, depending on the complexity and duration of the case.
- Licensing agreements: Drafting or negotiating a licensing agreement can range from $1,000 to $5,000 or more, depending on the terms and complexity of the agreement.
Always get a clear estimate of costs during your initial consultation to ensure that the services are within your budget.
Top Questions to Ask an Intellectual Property Lawyer
Before hiring an intellectual property lawyer, it’s essential to ask questions that will help you determine if they are the right fit for your case. Here are some key questions to ask:
-
What experience do you have with intellectual property law?
Ensure that the lawyer has substantial experience with your specific type of intellectual property, whether it’s patents, trademarks, copyrights, or trade secrets. -
How do you charge for your services?
Clarify whether the lawyer charges by the hour, a flat fee, or contingency, and get a clear estimate of what your case will cost. -
What is the likelihood of success with my application or case?
A good lawyer should provide an honest assessment of the chances of successfully obtaining a patent, trademark, or copyright or winning an infringement case. -
How long will the process take?
Ask about the expected timeline for filing your application or resolving your dispute, as IP matters can sometimes take months or years to finalize. -
What steps will you take to protect my intellectual property?
Ask the lawyer how they will help ensure your intellectual property is fully protected and what strategies they use to enforce IP rights. -
Have you handled cases similar to mine?
If your case involves specific industries or technologies, ask whether the lawyer has worked with similar clients and what the outcomes were.
How to Check the Credibility of an Intellectual Property Lawyer
To ensure that you’re hiring a reputable intellectual property lawyer, take the following steps:
- Check their standing with the state bar: Verify that the lawyer is licensed to practice in your state and has no history of disciplinary actions.
- Look for specific IP experience: Check their website or professional profile to ensure they specialize in intellectual property law and have successfully handled cases like yours.
- Read client reviews and testimonials: Look for reviews on platforms like Avvo, Martindale-Hubbell, or Google to see what past clients have said about their experience with the lawyer.
- Ask for references: A reputable lawyer should be willing to provide references from past clients who can speak to their professionalism and success in handling IP matters.
- Check for certifications or memberships: Membership in organizations like the International Trademark Association (INTA) or the American Intellectual Property Law Association (AIPLA) can indicate expertise in intellectual property law.
What Should I Prepare for My First Consultation?
To get the most out of your first meeting with an intellectual property lawyer, it’s important to come prepared with relevant information and documents. Here’s what you should bring:
- A detailed description of your invention, brand, or creative work: Be prepared to explain what you are seeking to protect, including any unique aspects or characteristics of your intellectual property.
- Any existing IP registrations or applications: If you’ve already filed for trademarks, patents, or copyrights, bring copies of the relevant documents.
- Information on potential infringers: If you are dealing with an infringement issue, provide details of the alleged infringer, including evidence of the infringement, such as images, documents, or correspondence.
- Questions about the process: Write down any questions you have about protecting or enforcing your intellectual property rights, including timelines, costs, and potential outcomes.
- Your goals: Be clear about what you want to achieve, whether it’s securing a patent, protecting a brand, or enforcing your IP rights against unauthorized use.
Being prepared for your first consultation will help the lawyer assess your situation more effectively and provide you with the best possible advice for protecting your intellectual property.
