Blake K. Kumabe

Competent IP guidance, though communication could improve

I engaged Blake Kumabe at Seed IP Law Group for assistance with a provisional patent application for a software tool. His knowledge in patent law is evident, and his recognition in the field is well-deserved. The initial consultation was thorough, and he clearly understood the technical nuances. However, the process felt somewhat transactional. There were occasional delays in email responses, sometimes taking several business days, which created minor anxiety during time-sensitive phases. While the final filing was handled correctly and professionally, I expected more proactive updates given the three-year investment. For straightforward IP matters, Blake provides solid, competent service. For clients needing frequent hand-holding or rapid-fire communication, setting clear expectations upfront would be advisable.
