Now We Enter The New Golden Age Of Entrepreneurship

This new golden age of entrepreneurship is a direct result of today’s global financial crisis. With unemployment reaching its highest levels in decades, a widespread market transition is underway. Today, we also advance to a worldwide marketplace primed for  new entrepreneurial activities that answer questions of energy demands, educational needs, environmental concerns, and a host of other concerns. Yet, we know that these same problems provide phenomenal opportunities for both creativity and innovation. The new ideas for business and technology that lay ahead will be rich in IP challenges and demands. As another result of the global financial case, doing more for our clients, while they must do ever more with limited resources, is the order of the day. At HULSEY^IP, we promise to deliver the highest quality services in protecting our clients'  technology and business interests.  We also pledge to do all that we can to serve our clients’ needs economically and efficiently, keeping them informed on all stages of their matters’ progress.

With the relationships we keep and the work we do, here are our guiding principles:

1. Integrity.  Integrity, in the work we do and the relationships we maintain, is the driving force of our firm. We realize that IP matters can often very sensitive and know that our clients trust us to represent them with integrity in everything.

2. Excellent Work Product.  Providing our clients with excellent work product demands that we approach all that we do with a standard of consistent, high quality performance. Our records and  communications with clients are detailed and clear, with messages and phone calls properly returned, deadlines met and promises kept.

3. Reasonable Fees.  We may work by the hour, on a contingency plan, or on other fee arrangements. But regardless of the structure, you will find our fees to be reasonable, and in many cases highly competitive with the finest IP law practices in the U.S. We maintain a comparatively low overhead, watch closely the bills we send our clients, and keep to our word on whatever fee arrangement we may undertake.

4. Continuing Education.  We believe that continuing education in the rapidly changing IP law fields is the essential life blood of our practice. To this end, we engage weekly in group training of all our professionals. Our attorneys complete an average of more than 30 hours of C.L.E. (Continuing Legal Education) a year. This is more than twice the typical state bar C.L.E. requirement. We also provide to all of our professionals the educational resources they need to move to the next levels in their individual professional journeys.

5. Civility.  At HULSEY^IP, we consider the practice of law to be a life journey and a privilege that carries with it both a fiduciary duty to clients and a fraternal relationship with others in the legal profession, both domestically and internationally. As such, our clients, all legal staff, patent agents, lawyers and judges deserve our respect, even when in disagreement. At HULSEY^IP we demonstrate respect through practices and policies calling for courtesy and civility, in accordance with the legal profession's noblest traditions.

6. Community Service.  We at HULSEY^IP hold that law, in its purest sense, is community service. Moreover, with IP rights and concerns ever increasing in global importance, we believe that academic and professional education is a necessity. The IP law, fundamentally, exists to permit commerce and creativity to thrive in advancing communities and developing markets. As such, HULSEY^IP professional are committed to finding and actively engaging in areas of community service, including pro bono services, where we seek to make a difference.

Based on a combination of expertise and experience, we provide our clients with the strategic advice and creative problem solving necessary to procure, protect and defend their patents, trade secrets, trademarks and copyrights.  With their intellectual property protected, our clients are able to optimize their competitive position, both domestically and internationally, and add value to their enterprise.
