Their team was…read moreincredibly knowledgeable, responsive, and made what can feel like a complicated process simple and stress-free. They truly took this off my shoulders and gave me peace of mind knowing everything was handled correctly. They took the time to explain everything clearly and ensured my business was fully compliant and set up the right way. I also added their annual package so I don't have to worry about any of this again, which was absolutely worth it. Professional, efficient, and genuinely helpful from start to finish. I highly recommend Bend Law Group to any business owner who wants to feel supported and confident that their legal and compliance needs are in great hands.

I was looking for an IP attorney to help me get a trademark. I found Trevor on Yelp and he had…read moregreat reviews. When I reached out to him, he was very responsive. He was able to explain to me the following: 1) he would research the USPTO and let me know if there were any other trademarks under the name; 2) the costs and fees that would be involved; 3) what he does and doesn't do (for example he doesn't do lawsuits, cease & desist because he is not that type of lawyer); 4) the process and timeline of filing a trademark; and 5) what I will need to do to demonstrate "Use in Commerce". After researching different Trademark attorneys, I am happy I chose Trevor to do this for me. So far, I am very pleased with him. He is knowledgeable, accessible, and thorough. Also, I appreciate how he stays in communication with me and has kept me abreast of every step occurring so far with the application filing process.

I have been in business for over 25 years, and I have learned that I work best with professionals…read morewho are fast, decisive, strategic, and truly knowledgeable in their field. I value clarity over flattery and precision over small talk. Long-term professional relationships are built on competence and integrity -- not on pleasant but empty words. I have been working with Trevor for over five years on trademark matters. During that time, he has handled multiple filings for me, including one case that I genuinely believed would be nearly impossible to secure. Not only did he navigate the complexities with clarity and confidence, but he ultimately succeeded where I had serious doubts it could be done. Trevor is sharp, responsive, and highly strategic. He assesses risk carefully, communicates directly, and moves efficiently. Even with my extremely detail-oriented and demanding approach to business, he is often one step ahead -- anticipating issues before I raise them and providing thoughtful, well-reasoned guidance. To be completely honest, part of me hesitates to write this because I would prefer he not become too busy. That is how valuable he is to me as a trademark attorney. If you are looking for someone who combines intelligence, precision, and professionalism -- and who delivers real results -- you will be in very good hands.

Arkady represented me in a wrongful termination/civil rights violation case. Specifically it was a…read morereligious and political discrimination case. It was a 4 year long battle and Arkady never gave up on me even though at times it appeared there was no light at the end of the tunnel. The employer had 3 well paid attorneys vs. a lone Arkady so it was a David vs. Goliath situation. You may think you are looking for an attorney to do all the work for you but you really should be looking for a good partner that you can brain storm and collaborate with because each industry is unique and each industry represents a different set of challenges that your attorney may not be familiar with. A good case is built on a good partnership between you and your attorney. Arkady quickly got up to speed in my specific niche industry and we formulated a plan of attack specific to my unique situation. In the end Arkady helped me build an amazing slam dunk case and negotiated a wonderful settlement 1 month before our jury trial was scheduled to start. I was so grateful with what he did for me and my family that I named my son after him.

I am beyond grateful to Arkady Ikin from the Law Office of A.

During one of the most stressful times in my life, he made me feel heard, supported, and never alone. Arkady took the time to explain every detail, answered all of my questions with patience, and always made himself available when I needed reassurance. His knowledge, honesty, and tireless work gave me peace of mind and confidence when I needed it most. I truly cannot thank him enough for his commitment and kindness. Arkady is not only an exceptional attorney, but also someone who truly cares about his clients. I would recommend Arkady Ikin and the Law Office of A. Ikin without hesitation to anyone looking for a lawyer who will fight for you and stand by your side every step of the way.

Even though…read morethey weren't directly handling my case, they still took the time to guide me on the best next steps. I worked with Colin Hector directly and he suggested reaching out to the manufacturer and even helped draft a letter I could use, which made the process much easier. What I appreciated most was their transparency... Colin was honest about their role and didn't try to push unnecessary services. Colin also followed up afterward to check in, which says a lot about how the firm treat people. Overall, I'm very grateful for Colin's help and would recommend Conn Law to anyone looking for honest advice and support.

I rarely write reviews anymore and almost never write bad reviews at all…read more The background -- I am an enterprise salesperson working in a high tech industry. I had an issue where my company was withholding a large sum of commission, probably somewhere in the ballpark of ~$200k. When I reached out to Minnis & Smallets, I received a prompt response to my inquiry that I was not a client they wished to represent -- was not even granted a brief call with an actual attorney to explain my situation. They literally have an entire page on their website (too wordy btw) devoted to NON-PAYMENT OF COMMISSIONS. So, I'm very curious as to what level of compensation issue cases they are handling if they have the privilege to turn down a probable six-figure judgment in my/their favor...? Oh, and the woman I spoke to was very inarticulate as to why the representation was denied, which was also odd. Bad experience and am happy to go elsewhere.

Better lawyers out there, have spoken to others in the Bay who gave truly nuanced consultations and offered solutions that made sense. She felt very inexperienced, relying on "what the law says" versus negotiation nuance. She frames it as an "intake call" in her response but she was offering me guidance on what to do even though I kept saying I didn't think her guidance made sense in my situation. Update: she just viewed my LinkedIn in response to this review and has not sent a letter to state she is not my attorney. Update: the non-attorney letter did go to my spam but it was wholly unprofessional as well. She was defensive for our conversation, blaming the "short nature" of it and "my timeline" and said "I believe you just posted a Yelp review and I am sorry that you felt the need to post that. It is your prerogative. I wish you the best and I hope you are able to find a satisfactory resolution." So, she was more focused on defending herself and arguing she was "right" than my case. I am greatly concerned about the ethics of this practitioner who prioritizes her own 5-star rating over reflecting on how she communicates with prospective clients. Employment law is a highly sensitive area, I hope people are able to find compassionate and knowledgeable individuals to serve them, not ones who are defensive and operate in an ethical gray area.
