What inventors say
A few words from our clients.
“Kevin Prince has been absolutely fantastic to work with on the patent. The way the claims portion was written conveyed a very deep understanding of the technology being patented. QuickPatents did a great job at converting my diagrams and drawings into patent figures. Throughout the process the communication was stellar, and Kevin frequently replied almost instantly to help me navigate the process. The quality of the patent paperwork that was produced is very high, and describes the device quite accurately and in an effective, understandable manner. I'm really blown away by the value QuickPatents provides, and will be a repeat customer in the very near future and beyond. Thank you!”
“So getting a patent can sometimes be a long and frustrating journey. I have a few patents and the majority of those turned out to be "not so great ideas" and didn't earn their keep! Now, what happens if/when you get a patent on an item and then it begins to sell? Well, from experience I can tell you that the nasty copies will show up at Amazon, Walmart, eBay, Facebook and all of the little online knock-off sites. When that happens, that's when you find out the actual quality of your patent, specifically the quality of the claims. Sort of like buying car insurance - you never know if your insurance company is any good until you have an accident! Kevin Prince has written several utility patents for me that have issued. The most important one is for an electronic mechanics tool that I invented several years ago. I was able to convince a smaller tool company to give it a go and slowly over the past several years it has caught on and began to grow. I now license a few tool companies with various embodiments of the tool. But this is where the trouble started... When I started to notice copies show up on Amazon, there were already several hundred listings selling a couple different copies of my patented tool! More investigation revealed several hundred more illegal listings on Walmart and eBay and too many small online stores to count! I then hired an excellent legal team (ESQgo.com) and they went to work to prove that my patent was being infringed by these sellers and guided me through the process of getting them removed. I learned that (basically) in order to show patent infringement you must show that the item in question is directly or indirectly exhibiting the features of at least one of your independent patent claims. There are other ways to prove infringement but this is the most secure and obvious. It was during this infringement procedure that I learned Kevin Prince knows his stuff! The patent claims were air-tight and sailed right through the infringement process! To date, with this patent I have removed well over 1000 infringing sellers on Amazon, Walmart and eBay - yes over 1000! I have been the full route with QuickPatents and Kevin Prince concerning more than one utility patent and I have personal experience and proof that Kevin can write patents that have some teeth and stand up to corporate lawyers and the legal process. Kevin Prince and everyone at QuickPatents are upstanding, honest folks and YOU WILL NOT BE SORRY IF HE WRITES A PATENT APPLICATION FOR YOU. Seriously!”
“Want to know why I hired him? Because he HAS patents. He's walked in the shoes of an innovator. He knows what you're going through and he's been there. First patent I had filed was through an ivory tower international law firm. That lawyer had never filed a patent for himself in his life and his engineer (added cost on every meeting and every email and every call!) didn't fully understand my concept. Pfooey. I spent a fortune and got boopkis. It wasn't entirely their fault - blame Alice. It still cost me a fortune and even without a death blow supreme court case, I probably still would not have ended up with an asset I could use. So when I had another idea I felt needed to be made, I researched harder for help and found Kevin. I've never looked back. With the QuickPatents team's help - I have been granted dozens of patents around the world. Truly. 39 countries, multiple patents in each. He and his team are amazing. As an engineer, Kevin has a precise way of describing the details of an innovation that lawyers just do not get (unless I suppose they are ALSO engineers!) With an engineer writing your claims they will be efficient and specific - that matters a LOT. Even my lawyers comment on how well the patents are written. Kevin's team is filled with former examiners from the patent office. Do you know why that matters? Because these same guys for years said "no" to everyone else. They listened to the best attorney's in the world argue the case law for the counter side to get a "yes". So they've heard all the best legal arguments for "yes". Now, they put that knowledge to work for you. And they are good. Kevin is efficient with his time and yours and his services are a fantastic value. He's accessible for questions by phone and responsive to email. Kevin can't make an unmarketable idea turn into gold (no one can!) and he won't promise you success (he can't). But if you want a fair shot at protecting an innovation to get it to market, I can't think of a better place to get fantastic help at a fair price. Quick Patents is as good as it gets. I've been working with them since 2018 and I can't say enough good things about them. Great work, great insights, great price. I've always been pleased with my choice.”
