"We work exclusively with Petock & Petock on all matters of intellectual property, from trademarks to patents and trust Michael and his firm with our complete portfolio of marks and renewals. Michael has a strong knowledge of trademark law and patent law and has effectively counseled and helped us register new marks, offer his expert opinion on matters of infringement and aide us in defending our marks both domestically and internationally. They helped us file three patent applications and were invaluable in helping us attain our very first official US patent. When it comes to IP law, I highly recommend consulting Petock & Petock."
