I (as well as several colleagues in my firm) have been using Lincoln IP for many years now.  We turn to Lincoln for our most important searches such as in support of past issuance proceedings, opinions or litigation. He never disappoints and is always ready to iterate the process (in the event that little something extra is needed). When the most obscure prior art must be found, count on Lincoln IP.

I don’t know how much I’ve told you, but the three patentability searches you did for me toward the end of last year were so good that they nearly gave me a heart attack.  In any case, the results really made us re-think our strategy, and in the 15 years I’ve been doing this, that hasn’t happened very often.  You and your searchers should be proud.

I highly recommend Lincoln and his firm based on my experience working with Lincoln as a patent searcher and later as a client hiring his firm for multiple invalidity searches. Unlike other firms that are a “closed box” once the search begins, Lincoln communicates with you from the beginning and on an ongoing basis to explain the status of the search, the results his team has found, and where the search should proceed. Furthermore, his team has the technical background to understand a broad range of technology areas as they have performed searches for me covering ethernet controllers, power controllers, liquid crystal displays (LCDs), and mechanical road devices. Finally, and most importantly, his team just performs by uncovering strong references that other firms just don’t find.
