    1 star. My experience was poor communication during a time-sensitive patent prosecution matter,…read moreincluding confusion over USPTO Office Action updates, billing, RCE strategy, and transition handling. I ultimately lost confidence in the firm's responsiveness and client communication at a critical stage.

    Slick, compelling website. Nightmare experience…read more 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 Mr. Rapacke 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 Mr. Rapacke 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 Mr. Rapacke 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 a refund from RLG to refund their fee and cover the new work...but all I got from Mr. Rapacke 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 Mr. Rapacke 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 at this link : https://www.floridabar.org/public/acap/filing-a-complaint/ Complaints can also be brought to USPTO regarding Mr. Rapacke as he was also just reprimanded by the USPTO (March '25) and is currently on probation. https://foiadocuments.uspto.gov/oed/Rapacke-Final-Order-(D2025-16)-redactions-applied-Redacted.pdf Mr. Rapacke was also sued in 2024 for another failure to notify their clients of USPTO letters that lead to their patent becoming abandoned : https://www.law360.com/pulse/articles/1815160/law-firm-hit-with-suit-over-abandoned-patent-application

He was able…read moreto navigate laws that were created to paint young people into a corner with little to no recourse or understanding of their rights. I am so happy my husband and I chose to work with Jay. He holds true to his values, listens to what you have to say and is aggressive in his defense. He worked tirelessly to ensure our baby came home with a clear record and rightfully so. I highly recommend you give Jay Kirschner a call to discuss your specific needs in this arena. He's an experienced defense attorney that understands Fort Pierce and the Treasure Coast -- the consummate professional. Thank you for all that you did for us!

    I believe Mr. Kirschner is an intelligent, experienced defense lawyer. The problem is, I think he's…read moreeither gotten to the point where he's overworked and doesn't have time for you, or he's just starting to care less than he used to. I could be wrong; I'm not really sure what the case is. I am sure that my husband sat in the SL County Jail for over 2 months, waiting for his attorney to arrive. I had to get a different attorney just 12 days before his hearing, because Mr. Kirschner never did appear at the jail even once to consult with his client. It was really sad, because I was out of state and couldn't do anything...in the end, I literally tried to beg him to go, but he would not respond. Mr. Kirschner has defended his actions by saying he had been on vacation, was too busy with another case, he "didn't need" to consult with his client, that my husband could have made a collect call to his office, and goes on and on about how he represented my (totally unrelated) case a few years ago, and how he represented my husband when he was initially arrested a couple years ago, and how our new attorney "let the Government persuade the Judge to issue an illegal sentence" (of course I called an appellate attorney; this was an open plea and there was no illegal sentence issued), etc etc etc, all of which have nothing to do with the blatant fact that Mr. Kirschner ignored his client. Shockingly, Mr. Kirschner even wrote to me that he cared "not a whit" about any of this. Sadly, things did not end well for my poor husband. Again, I do not know why Mr. Kirschner did this. All I can say is: "People don't care how much you know or who you know, until they know how much you care." Less
