I am a business lawyer and commercial litigator and often encounter intellectual property issues when assisting my clients with other matters. When I do, I always call Steve War who I can depend on to assist me and my clients with their IP needs. First, Steve is extremely knowledgable in this area and can often give preliminary answers to my questions based on his past experience. Steve is very flexible and capable of working side by side with other subject matter attorneys to get client’s deals done or litigate intellectual property disputes. Steve is also highly skilled at patent applications and defense. Having worked with Steve for over six years, I would highly recommend retaining him for all of your IP needs.
Mr. War successfully represented our midsize company as plaintiff in an international IP litigation that lasted about a year. In this year of working together Mr. War impressed us with his dedication, meticulous attention to detail, great knowledge of the legal as well as the technical matter. He provided professionalism combined with an individual and friendly support. Unlike with many other law firms Mr. War was directly reachable and always available, having a sympathetic ear for our ideas, concerns, and questions. During each step of the litigation he would make sure that we fully understood what was going on, what he was doing, and why he was doing it. Whenever it would become necessary, Mr. War could fall back and rely on a network of experienced and highly successful attorneys and experts. Furthermore, the coordination with his foreign colleagues, who represented us in the same matter in other countries, worked perfectly. Without exception we received positive feedback from his foreign colleagues. In IP matters Steven War is the attorney of our choice without hesitation. We highly recommend him to anyone in need of an IP attorney. Thank you Steve for everything you have done for us!
