Right off the bat, I was impressed with Attorney Iwashko’s professionalism and competence. Without the help of Attorney Iwashko, I would not have had such a successful outcome regarding my particular situation. Mr. Iwashko took on my difficult case without hesitation. He worked tirelessly to make sure that the truth was told and presented it perfectly. He has stood by every one of my requests and guided me through the entire lengthy legal process. Though we faced challenges, Mr. Iwashko did not falter. His thorough research and negotiation skills provided me with the pathway that I needed to rise to victory. I will only recommend Iwashko Law as I was treated with the utmost respect and Mr. Iwashko is an extremely skilled and knowledgeable attorney. I am proud to be an Iwashko Law client and will continue to retain this firm for all legal matters, including my upcoming Trademark and Patent registrations, as I know I am in the most capable hands.

I provide the highest possible recommendation for The Iwashko Law Firm. I have worked with Mr. Iwashko on a variety of trademark and patent cases ranging from registering multiple new trademarks, litigating existing trademarks, and filing and registering patents. What sets apart Mr. Iwashko's work? (1) He cares about his clients and sets your interests as his. He works for your best result and does not "nickel and dime" you for every little thing. He treats large and small clients with the same care and respect. (2) Mr. Iwashko knows patent and trademark law. Period. Inside and Out. He has spent countless time explaining the law to me to make sure that we make informed decisions in some challenging situations. (3) Mr. Iwashko's communications skills (writing/speaking/presenting) are the best I have seen in the legal profession. (4) Creativity - every time we submit a new invention, Mr. Iwashko adds to the value of the intellectual property by viewing the invention from multiple angles and actually increases the value of the invention through making the patent stronger. Finally, in my first small business venture, we were concerned when our business name was challenged by another company. Mr. Iwashko guided us through a 2 year process where we ultimately achieved the most desired outcome.
