Patent Application with Bay Area IP...
I chose to work with Bay Area IP for my patent applications after finding them online and then having a consultation with Mr Ariel Bentolila. My conversation with Mr Bentolila alone was the deciding factor to go ahead and work with Bay Area IP (if you ever talk to him you will understand what I mean, he is full of knowledge). Some of my experience with Bay Area IP: * The prior art search conducted by Bay Area IP found 2 of the top prior art the examiners found in their searches (1xKorean examiner, 1xUSPTO examiner). In fact, the USPTO examiner used the prior art Bay Area IP provided as their main citation, so there were no surprises. * PCT application was done very fast (even though it was a last-minute request by me) and was very affordable. * US Patent Application received a "Notice of Allowance" after a couple of Office Actions, and approximately 3 years after filing. I am now using Bay Area IP to file additional continuation applications. If I have any negative comments it would be that, at times, email responses were slow. However, I always followed up with phone calls and received the information/answer that I requested (in addition, the information provided by Bay Area IP on the patent application process can be quite comprehensive). Overall, my experience was great and I am continuing to work with the team at Bay Area IP.
