I gave them this rating because I got my patent, through the great insight of Marc Haddad who saw why the investigators at the patent office were unpleased with the presentation. Then, after receiving the approval I was lost because even though I knew it would be great devise for the appropriate consumer, I really did not know what to do with it. That is when I talked to Sean who is a business genius that wears many hats for Craig. And I would be remis not to mention Wilmer who has been in my corner since the first call, and always so pleasant to talk to. Never finishes a call without wishing me Blessings!Posted on Google![]()

I have greatly appreciated every level of professionalism from this firm. From my free consultation call with Sean I knew this place was honest. I couldn’t be happier with how things have gone.Posted on Google![]()

Craige Thompson is an exceptional patent attorney. He is an expert in building strong patents and patent claims. It is vitally important to build strong protection for your idea. But TPL is also fantastic when it comes to the "freedom to operate" side of your IP. FOA is often overlooked but just as important as your claims. There is a reason Craige's colleagues nicknamed him the "patent whisperer". I highly recommend Thompson Patent Law for all your IP needs.Posted on Google![]()

Daniel, Daniel, Daniel..... It was a pleasure having you and your team (Sumner and the gentleman that works with her) was amazing to work with. Daniel, you received the articulation of my idea very well. Though I felt that I was spotty at explaining it. I left feeling confident in your experience and recommend Thompson Patent LawPosted on Google![]()

More Real Stories: Why Clients Choose Thompson Patent Law
Craige and his team did a fantastic job with my provisional patent application. He asked all the right questions to help me flesh out my idea, and helped me to expand it into areas I never would’ve considered. I highly recommend reading his book, and working with Thompson Patent Law.

That critical translation from the technical engineer into the legal minds in the legal language and legal experience. And that handoff is really, really critical and that’s one of the things that I absolutely love about working with you guys.

Scott Lapierre
If you have an idea that is innovative you better get the protections in place, and also you guided me in that… Its so simple the way you’re really orchestrating the process. I didn’t have that much experience but I feel throughout this entire trip that we’ve been on, I’ve gained so much experience from it, that I can help others guide them to you.

Steve Graybill
Receiving the Patent Certificate Award from the USPTO was one of the greatest feelings in the world! Thank you and your team for facilitating such an incredible victory that helps us protect our IP.

I’ve had a very good experience working with Thompson law Offices over the past couple of years. They are very good at what they do. Currently they’ve obtained a patent for me in a reasonable time frame, and are pursuing yet another one. Not only are they very good, but they are cognizant of the financial aspects of this process, always taking into consideration the cost to their customers. I wouldn’t hesitate to continue to work with them on future projects.

Byron Tietjen
Craige Thompson is a top-notch intellectual property attorney. I would choose him to represent me if I ever needed a patent. I have no hesitation to refer my friends, family, and clients to him for IP work. He’s easy to work with, has a good personality, a good bed-side manner, and he’s extremely good in his skills. Five-Stars!
