I selected Wirtz Law to assist me with a series of problems I was having with my BMW. They worked with me over the course of 22 months to get a solid resolution to the issues with my vehicle. All in all they were easy to work with, and I appreciate their time and results. If I were ever in a similar situation I would definitely reach out to them again. I advise others to do the same as they were the most reputable of the law firms I connected.

If I could give Madison more than five stars, I would do it! She is an excellent attorney, with impeccable standards and care for her clients. Madison helped me set up my LLC, wrote the Terms of Use for my on-line business, revised my business agreements, and consulted on other legal aspects of setting up my business entity and services. She is incredibly patient, diligent, thorough and caring! Madison went above and beyond, walking me through various government websites and making sure I understood the legal infrastructure of my business. Madison is brilliant and has a heart of gold.

If you want a winner, hire Webb Law Group! As a business owner facing a 6-figure lawsuit, choosing the right attorney was a daunting decision and one I knew could make or break my situation. From my first phone call with Lenden Webb, I felt like I was in the most capable of hands. He exudes professionalism and confidence--he's personable, caring, and sharp as a tack. He's so educated and at the top of his field, yet breaks everything down in a way that's easy to understand. Lenden and his team, including Tirena, came up with creative solutions to the problem at hand. They were so well-prepared, ready for anything, and always steps ahead of the opposition. I almost felt bad for opposing counsel, who just looked flaky, unprepared and inexperienced in comparison. Lenden was transparent about pricing, which I really appreciated--he would weight the options at hand with the approximate cost of each. I couldn't be happier with the outcome, and it's all thanks to Tirena and Lenden!

Mark really cares about his clients and it's obvious. I've used probably a dozen lawyers in my career and having someone with hands on experience in the development world was a huge asset. Mark understood my business, how things worked, and it saved so much time not having to explain processes. I never want to need a lawyer again, but if I do, I will definitely go back to Mark.

My wife and I have been working with her oldest brother (85 yrs old) to help him with a Will and a Living Trust. For the past 3 years we have traveled from our home in Durand Mi. to San Diego to provide him with advice and provide any help he may need to get everything right. The more we worked the more complicated and confusing this procedure became, OMG were we Stumped. This year we decided we needed professional help. So, what do you do when your 2000 miles away and don't really know anybody in a big city like San Diego, GOOGLE IT! That's exactly what we did and came up with a bunch of names of attorneys that claim to be the best anywhere. We started making calls to see who we liked the best and would be able to take care of our issues. We left voice mails and asked to have someone contact us to set up a meeting. We encountered a few who were vague and after listening to what we needed really didn’t seem too interested. Then Jason, called us and we were so happy with his attitude and wiliness to complete the needed documents on a very short notice. Everyone in that firm seemed to want to help us get everything right, signed, and registered they even worked through the weekend. So, we could rest assured that we wouldn't be caught up in a nightmare with the probate courts. Thank you, Jason, and Ashley what a great feeling to know we made the right decision when we chose you

The team was amazing in helping us with our will and trust! They were incredibly helpful, knowledgeable, supportive and patient with us as we figure out the best path forward to suit some of our very particular needs. It’s obviously not a fun or easy topic to discuss and they were so understanding of that giving us options and suggestions that could be relevant to us. And allowing us the time we needed to sort things out amongst our family. Sometimes we wouldn’t be able to resolve things easily so we would be at a standstill for a while between me and my husband but they were great about checking in regularly without creating any additional pressure. We also had some personal and particular road blocks that we come up against and Ashley was wonderful in giving us options and guidance around that. Both she and Jason were so kind and personable and professional. We had talked to several places before coming here and I’m so glad we did!

I had an unfortunate situation where an Uber driver hit me and then falsely accused me of assaulting him. Despite trying to explain my innocence to the responding officer, I found myself needing legal help to clear my name. That’s when I got in contact with Sydney Rusch, and what a relief that was. From the start, Sydney and David put me at ease, walking me through their plan with confidence and clarity.
Sydney's proactive approach was impressive—she answered my questions before I even had to ask. It was reassuring to feel like I had a dedicated team genuinely looking out for my best interests.
When the court date arrived, Sydney gave an outstanding performance, fighting hard on my behalf. The result? Everything was dismissed and thrown out of court. Sydney Rusch is an incredible lawyer, and I can’t recommend her highly enough. If you need someone in your corner, she’s the one to call.

Due to my medical condition and the business environment, I got to a point where I couldn't make credit card payments anymore. So I didn't. But I don't really understand the paperwork system so I just let it be. After 3 years, a judgment was entered against me. So I can't simply avoid the situation like I have been doing. Which is a big mistake by the way (I should have taken care of this in the first year). But live and learn.
So I did internet research and found that bankruptcy was my best (and probably only) option. So I could try to file bankruptcy papers myself and save money - which I don't recommend. Why? Because I am going to get buried in paperwork and if I fill things out incorrectly... who knows what outcome I will get or how long it will take to get my discharge.
So I called 6 attorneys. Prices in San Diego vary from $1000-$2500. Funny thing is - all the attorneys are providing the same service. So, what do you do? Are you sure the most expensive attorney is the best? Do you really want to go with the cheapest legal center - that office that has 5 different attorneys pumping out bankruptcies - and you interact with the paralegal and not the attorney.
I wanted someone honest and reliable. Linda was not the cheapest but she was affordable. She was very articulate over the phone, so I think that is what sold me. Some of the attorneys play $ games. They quote a high price but will negotiate downward. With Linda - you don't have to do that. She gives you the right price from the first phone call. So - she may seem a little bit cheaper but she is about the same price as the others that are playing games by starting out artificially high with the quoted fee.
But I don't want an attorney who plays games. I want someone who is honest and straightforward. I want my attorney to be honest with me, and honest with the bankruptcy trustee. So I went with Linda, and I am glad I did.
Linda can be reached any time you need her - either by phone or by email (whatever you like) - and she is just a down to earth hard working family woman. Linda knows the law and is very good with paperwork. She is accurate and precise. She has an assistant Tammy who was also very reliable in my interactions with her. Both Linda and Tammy answered all my emails and phone calls promptly and thoroughly. Which means... no stress... at all.
Linda helped me write the paperwork. She is needed because the bankruptcy court expects things to look a certain way. For example - I can't write that my monthly food expense is $1000. The system doesn't allow it. So we had to lower it to $300. Now, how am I going to eat on $300/month when one single burrito at Roberto's taco shop is $12?? That's why I need Linda. Because the court system is based on the rules of paperwork and not the rules of reality.
I needed to get my bankruptcy paperwork in fast because I started to worry that the judgment creditor may come after my car. So... I asked Linda how fast she could do it? She said she will do what it takes to help me. So Linda took time away from her kids to meet with me in her law office in Downtown San Diego late in the evening. We filled out the paperwork together and nailed it!
From there - the process unfolded seamlessly and I think it was about 3 months total before my discharge. That's the fastest it can be done due to court timeline and procedures.
Go with Linda and do it right. I'm sure there are other good bankruptcy lawyers in San Diego, but - based on my experience with Ms. Mcaleer - I tell you no one could have done it better.
Thank you, Linda. I am a simple guy who just got lost financially. You navigated me out of my nightmare.

I am delighted to share my experience with Mr. Ludwig, who has been my legal counsel for the past several years. From the outset, it was evident that Mr. Ludwig's commitment to his clients is unparalleled. His dedication to providing exemplary legal services is truly commendable, and I am grateful for his unwavering support throughout my legal proceedings.
One of the most remarkable aspects of Mr. Ludwig's practice is his accessibility. Whether it be via phone calls or emails, he has consistently made himself available to address any concerns or queries I may have had. This level of responsiveness instilled a sense of confidence in me, knowing that my legal matters were being handled with the utmost attention and care.
Furthermore, Mr. Ludwig's depth of knowledge and expertise in his field are truly impressive. He possesses great business acumen, which undoubtedly contributed to the success of my case. Not only did he answer all of my questions comprehensively, but he also demonstrated a willingness to go above and beyond to ensure that I was well-informed and empowered throughout the legal process. In instances where he did not have an immediate answer, Mr. Ludwig took the initiative to conduct thorough research and provide me with accurate information in a timely manner.
Mr. Ludwig's track record speaks volumes about his proficiency as a litigator. Despite facing numerous accusations and false representations, he approached each challenge with tenacity and skill, ultimately securing favorable outcomes for his clients. His ability to navigate complex legal landscapes and effectively defend his clients' interests is of true value.
As someone who was relatively new to litigation, I greatly appreciated Mr. Ludwig's guidance and clarification every step of the way. He took the time to explain legal concepts and procedures in a manner that was easily understandable, thereby alleviating any concerns or uncertainties I may have had.
Moreover, Mr. Ludwig's resourcefulness in sourcing independent third-party experts was instrumental in strengthening my case. Whenever the need arose for additional expertise, he promptly identified and provided multiple options, ensuring that my case had the support it needed to succeed.
In conclusion, I cannot recommend Mr. Ludwig highly enough. His professionalism, expertise, and unwavering dedication to his clients set him apart as an exceptional legal practitioner. If you are in need of legal representation, look no further than Mr. Ludwig – you will be in excellent hands.

Tirelessly worked on my case that another lawyer had really messed up. I was facing a lawsuit. He gave me the personal attention that I needed to feel confident about the dismal prospects facing me. He completed that case better than expected. We then proceeded to take action against the lawyer that originally messed everything up. He worked to locate me a lawyer that could handle the case and then he worked with the lawyer to get the case resolved to my satisfaction. You will not go wrong with Eric.

Susana is very competent, professional and always works with the highest standards of honesty and integrity. Susana represents everything we all hope for in an attorney and she always has your best interest in mind. Susana will clearly outline the legal situation you might be facing and will define the pros and cons of taking a given course of action. Susana always works to avoid taking legal issues to trial, but will always make sure you preserve that right if it will be required. Finally, she is a decent person who is a joy to work with despite the trying circumstances we faced -- I recommend her 100% without reservation and hesitation.

We couldn’t be happier with our experience working with Michael Jenkins for family trust set up. From the very start, he was incredibly responsive and took the time to answer all of our questions with patience and clarity. Michael has a gift for making the legal process feel straightforward and manageable, and his advice has always been thoughtful and spot-on. The pricing is transparent and fair, which made us feel at ease knowing there wouldn’t be any unexpected costs.
Some of the best parts of working with him are the speedy updates and unlimited questions allowed (which are all included in the price!) — most times we’d hear back within a day, keeping us well-informed at every step. The price also includes switching your home to the Trust name and in-home notarization which can add up to $800. Plus, everything can be done remotely via Zoom, which was a huge convenience for us.
Overall, Michael’s service was outstanding, and we wholeheartedly recommend him to anyone in need of a reliable, efficient, and truly caring attorney!

Michael Jenkins recently helped us update our family trust, and it has been a true pleasure working with him and his team. The whole process from start to finish has been made clear and as simplified as possible. We had many questions and ideas he worked through with us, making iterations several times as he offered us ideas and options to accomplish what we wanted. We especially appreciated their process using recordings and highlighted document changes with detailed explanations, that we could review on our own time. We highly recommend Jenkins & Jenkins.

I can tell you that the positive reviews for this firm are merited!
I had an important question regarding probate law. I contacted my previous family law attorney, explained my situation and subsequent question to her assistant, and waited all day for a response. Her assistant called me back late afternoon with no answer to my question and the suggestion that I reach out to her partner who specializes in probate law. I was then told I’d have to wait three weeks for a zoom call to ask her partner my question.
I googled highly rated probate attorneys and stumbled upon Jenkins and Jenkins. I called, explained my question to the assistant and was put through to a cheerful Caroline Jenkins. She listened to my concern and answered my question, which enabled me to make the right decision to drop further pursuit. She also gave me a referral in case I wanted to go forward through legal channels.
Caroline, you are my hero. Admittedly, people make jokes about lawyers because many of them are just out to make a buck and will tell you the things you want to hear. When you find a lawyer like Caroline, hold on tight and save yourself from misery and financial loss.
Thank you again, Caroline!!!

I reached out to Michael Weiner after experiencing difficulties with respect to accurate wage statements from my former employer. I had a signed contract which outlined a commission structure and Michael was able to review my employment contract. He advised me on the correct waiting time penalties that I was owed. Michael explained how the law applied to my predicament and was able to write a clear demand to my employer. His understanding of my predicament was with such kindness and expertise that we were able to resolve the matter in a swift and positive result. Michael's communication style is professional, kind, and extremely responsive. His knowledge and expertise specifically in contract and employment law assisted me to in a very favorable settlement, which exceeded my expectations and my former employers initial offer.
Michael fought for me when others did not, and kept my best interests at heart the entire time. He carefully considered each item of negotiation and expertly drafted responses in a timely manner. I will be going to Michael for any and all legal matters that I encounter from now until the future. Thank you, Michael!

I was referred to Michael Weiner by another attorney who spoke very highly of him. He puts his clients' needs first and fights for their rights. I was sued for over a million dollars for defamation from a Yelp review. I did not have the resources to fight such a massive lawsuit. Michael was able to provide compassionate legal advice, care, and understanding in a highly stressful situation. He provided me with peace of mind by putting things into perspective and calming my nerves during the process. In the end, through his dedication to my case, the entire lawsuit was dismissed. I would definitely hire him again and highly recommend that you do so as well.

I hired Michael to help me with a legal matter (a business where I had been storing valuables absconded with my property and sold it! And we had to sue him to try to get my money back), and after working with him to a very successful conclusion of this legal case, I cannot find enough good things to say about the GREAT GREAT job Michael did.
He managed to negotiate a very satisfactory settlement for me that I thought was quite fair value given the reality of what was legally do-able. I believe it was his experience in the law that enabled him to do this, and as well I was very happy in the way Michael worked with me….good communication, good service and in my opinion very fair pricing considering the amount of work he did.
I have no connection to Michael other than being someone who hired him for a legal matter who is very satisfied with all aspects of the service he provided. I would definitely recommend him.

Matthew helped me draw up contracts for my music business. I understood very basic levels of what I needed and he took my basic needs and created amazing templates for me to use for all future bookings and music that we obtain. Additionally he explained in great detail each section of the contracts so I knew what I was giving my artists. It was a very enjoyable and educational experience. I will recommend Matthew any time I know of somebody looking for quality legal work.

Matthew Batista assisted me with matters of the Fair Housing Act. Over the course of a month, he gave me professional counsel and was able to break the law down and explain it to me in understandable terms. He went above and beyond, drafting me written correspondence for my communication with my landlord, and explained the applicable law to further my knowledge about the issue, making my points of communication with my landlord streamlined and compelling. He made himself available for advice whenever I needed him while being approachable and understanding. Mr. Batista is the most professional lawyer I have sought out and I’ll be coming to him with any further matters.

Brooks is an excellent Trademark attorney. Throughout our work together he has explained all of the legal concepts and procedures very well. I appreciate that this attorney generally includes a lot of extra support in his rates. After I hired him for my company’s Trademarks, there was an office action from the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office that required a response and he quickly responded so my mark wouldn’t face cancellation. His consistency definitely makes the whole process smoother.

It is amazing how quickly Bill can sift through all of information involved with a case and hone in on the salient points to reach accurate conclusions and devise a plan of action. One of the things I appreciate the most is that he takes time to explain the issues and points of law and how they apply to the case. It is a great example of why attorneys are often referred to as counselors.
Bill is always well prepared and conducts himself in an ethical and professional manor. When he is working on one of our cases, I believe I am receiving the best representation possible.

Bill was the litigator for an ERISA plan , in which the former trustees had breached their fiduciary duties. Bill's performance in this role was outstanding because he was always extremely prepared and immediately responsive during the trial. For example one witness and one defendant testified falsely and Bill immediately referred them to admitted trial documents which proved their testimony was false. The defendant who testified falsely admitted his previous statement was "probably wrong". The judge in Federal Court ultimately ruled in our favor on the main issue in the case. A very important fact upon which he based this ruling was that this defendant's testimony was not true and this led the judge to rule in our favor on this primary issue.

I hired Melody 4 years ago to represent me in a Civil lawsuit. She explained the process (timeline and expense) of a lawsuit and really made sure I understood the emotional and financial strain I was about to embark on. Despite her warnings, I continued on the journey. Melody was caring and understanding and worked diligently to find resolve for the wrong doing. Keeping high ethcial standards and proper judicial procedures as her guide post, she encountered 2 highly unethical attorneys and a business entity willing to commit perjury to win the case. Regardless, Melody continues to represent me and I fully trust and respect her suggestions and knowledge in all aspects of the legal field and judicial system. I have recommended her to several friends/clients as I know they will be in good hands with my trusted attorney. Melody has proven to me there are still good attorneys around that do follow proper procedure and actually care about their client instead of their billable hours. She kept me informed of every communication between herself and opposing counsel and she discussed the possible scenarios with me before deciding the direction to take. She actually listens to her clients and follows their direction instead of deciding what to do on her own as so many other attorneys do. I have spent many, many hours following and researching cases and attorneys and I KNOW Melody Kramer is superb in what she does. I would never get into any legal dealings without Melody by my side. She has so many positive attributes: her ability to negotiate with opposing counsel, her eloquent writing skills, her vast knowledge of the legal field and most importantly - her ability to still be caring and human. I cannot say enough about what a great person Melody Kramer is.

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.
