Rick Barnes has provided us assistance with regard to software licensing agreements, trademarks, patent, copyright, trade secrets, NDA/CDA agreements, employment agreements and other intellectual property matters for approximately a decade.

I have been working with Mr. Barnes on patent filing and related activities for over a decade. I have found him to be very professional, with solid technical background & pleasant demeanor. We not only seek patent related advice from him but also share technical challenges and his input has often proven valuable to move the filing process forward.

I have been a client with Richard Barnes for over 10 years. Richard was able to provide timely research to appropriately identify and file registered trademark applications for three different companies I own. His work is very timely and he was able to say me both money and headaches down the road. He understands what I need and is an extrememly dependable and knowledgable individual. I highly recommend him.

Rick Barnes is that rare combination of supersmart attorney, outstanding case manager, and fabulous human being. Rick has represented me in copyright and trademark matters and I am extremely pleased with his work, his representation, and the results. I recommend him without reservation.

I am client of Rick for 7 years to get patent application. I appreciate his continuous support to get final goal.

Rick is a very knowledgeable patent attorney and has helped us for many years. He is cost effective and was able to write (in our case) high-tech patents that were accepted by the PTO.

Rick has been representing our company (Swiss-based, with a Technology Center in Knoxville) for many years in IP matters, mainly drafting and prosecuting patent and trademark applications. His work is always to the highest professional standard and delivered on time, and it is pleasant to deal with him. We highly appreciate Rick and recommend him.
