"Knowledge, communication, responsiveness."

"They are responsive, reliable and with great attention to detail."

"They are very efficient and competent. They are also confident in their advice."

"They are very efficient and reliable."

"They are very experienced, which makes working with them very easy.  They know exactly what documents and information to provide me whenever they seek my assistance.  The process of obtaining a brief and working with them to finalise a submission and/or appear at a hearing is seamless."

"They have great expertise and experience in trademarks, and were able to advise us holistically across many jurisdictions, not just Australia. They looked after all the paperwork and filing so all we needed to do was to review documents they had already prepared, get them executed and they took care of the rest."
