"They are approachable. We appreciate the fee structure, and they are not intent on racking up the bill with mundane tasks."

"The most important aspect of their service is responsiveness and completing deliverables within extremely short turnaround time, while maintaining the quality of the advice. I have worked with multiple law firms around the world and I have never experienced the quality of service and the timeliness this great! "

"First of all, of course, we value the excellent work of the attorneys involved in the preparation of applications and responses to Office Actions. But sometimes when patenting inventions, the task is not to write a new application or respond to an Office Action, you just need to get advice about some complicated aspects of US patent law or find out how best to proceed in this or that unclear situation. BCF Business Law attorneys showed their best in this matter as well. We received exceptionally complete, accurate, competent advice from them, and their recommendations have helped the company make the right choice more than once. It is very convenient to work with BCF in terms of document flow. Their emails and documents always arrive on time, they are well-categorised and tagged, so they are easy to find in the mailbox, no matter how much time passes. Their contracts, invoices and other documents are always executed without errors. And in terms of administrative decisions, BCF shows the same flexibility and friendliness as when working with inventors. There were situations when, due to force majeure, we delayed the payment of the invoice or asked to reissue the invoice with other details. There have never been any problems when interacting with people from BCF who make the relevant decisions."

"We value the attitude and consistency of the team Andreanne Auger, Johanne Auger and Tuba Yamac. They and their respective support teams are excellent communicators, strategic thinkers, and very enjoyable to work with."

"Their patent agents truly understand our innovations. They think of applications or improvements to our technology we have not even thought of. They really help us with our IP strategy by always presenting different options with the pros and cons. Their team is composed of experienced professionals for every situation we encounter."

"They are competent, intelligent. Good people."

"We appreciate their counsel, availability, blogs and free training."

"We value their support, professionalism, knowledge, adaptation and responsiveness."

"BCF Business Law's patent team is really unique, having strong professionals focused on the client's business needs, technical skills and global legal skills for various markets. Furthermore, working speed for the team is supersonic! "

"They are very responsive and very competent."

"Our work is very heavily scientific (clinical) and technical (AI) – and novel. The team have the skills to really understand the details of the work we do, which in our experience is rare. They are helping us to patent two very different families, in terms of scope and field of experience. The fact that they can tackle both speaks to their breadth of understanding and adaptability. They are very clear in terms of giving us options and providing overall advice – this helps us to plan our strategy effectively to manage costs and timing in line with our broader business strategy (including regulatory) and somewhat limited resources. It is a relationship of genuine trust, support and interchange: the team feels like an extension of ours. This is despite the fact that, due to our size, we are probably among the least important of their clients. They are very proactive and positive, always looking for a new approach and different angles to try. Although obviously highly experienced, which is brought to bear in their work, at the same time I never feel like they are sharing the same tired advice they have given a million times before."
