      ***** ******** was very knowledgeable and really understands the process, paperwork, and intricacies of patents. With his 37+ years of patents background he has seen a lot of ideas and knows what it takes to get it across the line. Not evey idea or patent will be profitable, and ***** treats every idea the same by giving it all of his attention and energy. My experience has been great so far, I also had the patent, my own design and pro type completed before they reached out to me about my idea, making my experience quick and fun.

      I have had nothing but a great experience with ***. The representative, ****** talked to me, explained, what I'm sure were "simple" questions, but he was ALWAYS professional and curious. He always took as much time with me as needed. Can't wait to bring my next invention to ***.

      I had the pleasure of being introduced to ****** ***** when searching for the right company to represent me. This is the first time I have ever tried Entrepreneurship! So, you can imagine the number of questions I had. ****** was super friendly, knowledgeable, and answered each and every one of my questions fully. He was patient, and never made me feel like I was wasting his time. I commend him!

      I am an MD who has worked with several people in UPR, all of them pleasant to interact with, while trying to obtain a utility patent on a medical device. Unfortunately they have very limited understanding of the specific medical problem I'm proposing to treat or how the relatively simple device I'm trying to ******************** will work, despite my descriptions in ******** language. I would definitely not recommend using them to try to patent anything very technically involved, especially for the money involved.

      ******, the personnel at UPR do not practice patent law. We have agreements with several law firms that have well over one hundred (100) years of experience combined. After your review I had the law firm carefully vet the patent application that they had prepared for you. Unfortunately, what you are requesting is not attainable, a patent application cannot read like a medical journal. The patent office has specific guidelines and procedures in the preparation and submission of a patent application. The patent attorney clearly understands your product and is happy to work with you to modify the application to your liking. But we must go forward with an understanding that you must stay within the boundaries of the patent offices regulations. I look forward to hearing back from you so we can resolve your concerns and finish the filing of your patent application.Best regards, *****************************.

      I paid $10,000 dollars to this company and all I've received is a patent. I don't believe a patent is worth $10,000 alone I was not given the full service that was offered I haven't heard anything from them in years. I believe having receive the patent the difference of the amount I paid should be refunded to me. I've waited to many years and nothing.

      I have been working with UPR and these guys have been very prompt and honest. Wonderful to work with. I am in patent pending stage and we all are excited to move forward with international patent and design patent. We believe that my invention will sweep the market. World wide. Super blessed ??

      This company has been nothing but awesome to me. I'm in the process of becoming patent pending. They happen on the phone with me every step of the way. I feel very comfortable with him and they're doing a great job. I'll keep adding to the reviews
