Steven has been an essential partner for us as we've navigated the tricky waters of starting our business. His expertise in small business and intellectual property law; willingness to discuss any and all questions or concerns; and general easygoing demeanor, have made him an asset to us and an absolute pleasure to work with. He's knowledgeable, articulate, and most importantly: patient. I can't recommend him highly enough.

"I used Buchwald & Associates for the incorporation of and trademark application for my start-up and would recommend them to others launching a business. Steven was very responsive and promptly completed the services. I've also been pleased with the follow up from Steven as the trademark application advances through the USPTO process. Additionally, he's been helpful in providing advice and guidance when I've had questions on other legal facets of launching a start-up."
