Add ReviewBill Hulsey has worked with me on multiple patents over the past 17 years. He has taught me a tremendous amount about patent law and the workings of the USPTO and foreign patent organizations. Bill is extremely practical in his approach to the patent process.

I've known Bill, professionally, since the early 90s, when I was writing my second patent. At the time he was not independent. I always liked his professionalism and his technical understanding of technology.Report
Over the years, Bill switched companies a couple of times and I always followed him. He has given me and my companies advice about Intellectual Property, patent filing, and IP protection.
Since he formed his own team I have been very pleased with their depth of knowledge and promptness in responding to queries. He is a straight talker and will let you know early enough the possible avenues to proceed protecting your IP.

Small businesses have cool ideas that need to be protected, too! But how do you get to the big league resources to play the game?Report
Bill and his team at Hulsey PC continue to impress us with their competence, approach-ability, and patience, in addition to a flexible and relaxed, innovative work attitude. We first met Bill at a SCORE presentation … which other patent lawyer takes the time to inform entrepreneurs about intellectual property rights!
Is it cheap? No. But the Hulsey team puts reality of protecting our intellectual property within reach. Their services not only help to protect, but also open doors, in short: It’s worth it.

The most important attribute for a patent attorney, I believe, is the ability to solve complex problems and to bring success where there seems to be overwhelming difficulty. Bill was the right person to handle the problems in the prosecution of my patent and I highly recommend him to others that are looking to make their complex ideas understandable to others. R.C.
