Expert guidance on our company's trademark portfolio

We engaged Steven Espenshade at Pirkey Barber to handle a complex trademark clearance and registration for a new product line. His deep knowledge, honed over 15 years and recognized by Best Lawyers, was immediately apparent. He provided clear, strategic advice that balanced legal protection with our business goals. The process was thorough, and we felt confident in his counsel. While communication was generally excellent, there were a couple of instances where a follow-up email took a day longer than expected. Overall, Steven is a highly skilled attorney in Austin for trademark and copyright matters, and we are very satisfied with the outcome.
