If I come up with another invention, I would go back to the Rapacke Law Group!
This was my first patent and I learned a lot from this experience and that you have to have patience! It can take a long time (few years) to get a patent approved and throughout the entire process the Rapacke law firm team put up with my questions and concerns! They always quickly responded to my phone calls, emails and kept me in the loop as to anything going on with my patent application! They were always professional and, if I come up with another invention, I would go back to them!

Slick, compelling website. Nightmare experience.
Once you sign their contract, prepare to beg. The first draft deadline for the contracted non-provisional patent application was catastrophically missed. The reason? The lawyer the RLG outsourced my application to, who lived in another state, missed the initial deadline and then went on vacation. He then slow-walked the draft reviews and ran out the clock until the filing deadline (a classic fixed-fee lawyer move). No problem for RLG, as they’ll happily file your application in an unfinished state with more typos and mislabeled figures than a third grader’s paper.
I begged them to fix it and was ignored. Some associate in Colorado then called to collect the rest of their fee, unaware the application wasn’t complete. I begged the RLG to finish the application himself, but was ignored. I begged again, and 45 days later, I received a partial response that addressed only a fraction of the necessary work.
I fired the RLG and learned through my new lawyer that there were two USPTO letters regarding the application that RLG never forwarded (a major RLG contract breach and violation of The Florida Bar rules), and the application had become abandoned—dead in the water.
Under the RLG's care my ap sank quietly, like a ship in the night and I paid my new lawyer a significant amount to salvage the application and requested the RLG to refund their fee and cover the cost of the legal work to revive my application...but all I got from the RLG was deflection and gaslighting.
Ignore, deflect, derange. They ignored my stated issues, deflected the blame onto me, and derange the facts. Ignore, deflect, derange—for months. Every attempt to settle was met with that technique. I’m now paying significantly more for my patent application, and the RLG still retains my 50% fee for contracted work he never delivered.
What an awful, expensive, and soul-crushing experience.
0/10…would NOT recommend.
A quick note to others who may have experienced unethical representation from the RLG. You can file a free complaint with The Florida Bar online through their Attorney/Consumer Assistance Program (ACAP).

Outstanding Trademark Service – Highly Recommend Rapacke Law Group!
I recently worked with Andrew and Rapacke Law Group to purchase and secure a trademark for my business, and the entire experience exceeded my expectations. From the initial consultation to final approval, their team was knowledgeable, responsive, and incredibly efficient. They walked me through the entire process, answered every question I had (and I had many!), and ensured I fully understood the steps involved.
What stood out most was their transparency and flat-fee pricing—no surprise costs or confusing legal jargon. They made what could’ve been a complicated process feel straightforward and manageable. I felt confident knowing Andrew and his team of experts are protecting my brand and guiding me with care.
If you’re looking for reliable, professional legal support to trademark your business or product, I can’t recommend Rapacke Law Group enough!

No one ever calls back or answer the phone except dumb AI
I spoke to a Casey last Tuesday.said I would call again Friday, I’ve called Friday, Monday, Tuesday and now today. No one has ever called me back and I had left a message as well. Crappy service especially if they want 12k to do a patent, you’d think they would return calls.

IP/copyright case - expertly done and for a VERY reasonable fee
We provided our IP/copyright case to Andrew, and he got on it immediately. He provided expert analyses based on the most recent precedent, answering all our questions. He also did some extra research on issues we were not aware of, and he provided an easy-to-follow matrix of the steps we needed to take on our project to make sure our risks were neutralized.
We could not have asked for a more professional analysis, and the added value information was a major bonus. And a pleasant surprise.
AND the fee was perfectly reasonable, not like other lawyers who, quite frankly, massively overcharge.
We will certainly use Andrew's services again.
