Top Patent Lawyers and Attorneys

"Very good and knowledgeable."

"This is my second time working with Michael, and the experience has been flawless once again. He is extremely knowledgeable, clear, and efficient. Highly recommended!"

"I gave 2 stars for response time because I had to follow up for a response many times throughout. He did meet deadlines and would be very available near court dates. I ended up terminating our relationship though because of lack of communication. We did win the case Hoover there was more to be done."

"Michael was a pleasure to work with. He was professional, knowledgeable, thorough, and responsive throughout the entire process. His attention to detail and thoughtful guidance made the experience seamless. I truly appreciated his expertise and would highly recommend his services."

"Michael was really great to work with! From our initial consultation, he was easy to talk to, understanding, and genuinely interested in my project. He listened to everything I had to say, answered all my questions, addressed my concerns, and worked with me every step of the way. He was very responsive, always answered my emails promptly, and was incredibly efficient in moving my project forward while making sure we stayed on schedule. I appreciated how much he cared about making sure I was content with each detail and thefinal draft. He made the entire process comfortable and collaborative, and it was very nice to work together."

"it was a pleasure working with Michael, he was quick and professional"

"Michael Bartholomew handled the provisional patent filing for a GPS-triggered audio delivery system for endurance athletes — a mobile app involving CoreLocation background triggers, AVAudioSession audio ducking, Bluetooth device detection for multi-sport transitions, and a server-side audio pipeline. Complex, multi-layered software invention with 19 figures and 42 claims. What set Michael apart was how quickly he understood the technical architecture and translated it into comprehensive patent language. Every element I described — including a novel 6-step audio playback sequence with configurable timing parameters — was captured precisely, with alternative embodiments to protect future implementations. He flagged §101 considerations proactively and structured the claims to survive scrutiny as a technological process rather than an abstract idea. That kind of forward thinking isn't something you can ask for — it's something an experienced attorney brings on their own. He was also exceptionally responsive throughout the engagement. Multiple revision rounds, new figures added, additional claims written — all turned around quickly and accurately. For a non-technical founder navigating IP for the first time, his ability to explain every decision clearly made the process manageable. Worth every dollar and then some. Highly recommend for any founder with a software, mobile, or hardware-adjacent invention who needs someone who genuinely understands what they're building."

"Great service. Thank you."

"Fantastic service really recommend."

"Michael took over a US utility application that had a missed USPTO deadline, a priority-restoration petition to file, and an incomplete IDS. He found the problem I had missed, gave me a clear deadline and a flat quote up front, and filed everything in a single clean submission ten days early. What stood out: he corrected me twice on points where I was wrong, and explained why rather than just doing what I asked. He read a 20-page document I sent and came back with a specific, honest assessment of which claims it helped and which it did not - including the parts I did not want to hear. No surprise charges, and he told me when something was not worth paying for. Direct, fast, and priced exactly as quoted. Recommended."

"10 stars"

"Michael was very professional, knowledgeable, and efficient in handling my USPTO patent matter. He carefully reviewed the prosecution history and my prepared response, identified the necessary procedural corrections, and clearly explained the steps required to bring the filing into compliance with USPTO requirements. He also identified and addressed an issue concerning the power of attorney and correspondence information. Communication was clear throughout the engagement, and the filing was completed promptly and well ahead of the deadline. I particularly appreciated his willingness to work with a limited and clearly defined scope and fixed fee. I would gladly work with Michael again on future U.S. patent matters."
