His knowledge, patience and determination helped me and my husband acquire a patent successfully. He always remained in contact with us and moved very quickly to get things done. I was never waiting on him, which I believe is very important when working with clients. I look forward to Venky helping us in the future! I am a very satisfied client!”

“Mr. Venkatraman worked to quickly resolve my patent issue. Within a single weekend, he helped myself and others to receive our due credit in a patent application. He communicated frequently, through all hours of the day. Mr. Venkatraman has a strong understanding of patent law; his expertise ensured that all aspects of my group’s participation were reflected accurately and appropriately in the submitted application. I cannot thank him enough for his representation in this matter, and wholeheartedly recommend him to anyone in need of a patent lawyer.”

He provided me with guidance on questions I should ask and changes that I should request. With Venkys advice, I feel reassured that I clearly understood the documents I was signing and that I had been able to negotiate changes to the agreements that give me peace of mind.

My case was unusual that there was no settlement or response from my spouse for my divorce petition. Venky offered invaluable advice and ensured both parties got fair portion of assets with very minimal paperwork. Venky was also very sensitive to my requests and always made it a point to listen and offer advice from my viewpoint as well. Thanks Venky for your excellent support.”

“I was referred to Venky by a common friend fourteen months into my divorce case involving custody of a child. I only wish I met Venky as soon as I decided to file for a divorce.
Venky, unlike an attorney, performed a high-level analysis of my case, informed me of its strengths and weaknesses, the possible strategy and its associated costs (both time and money) and the outcomes- most likely, likely and unlikely.
While he has more knowledge of family law and the court system than most practicing attorneys, he worked with my attorney every step of the way and complementing my attorney’s strategy and execution, thereby adding immense value.
Venky strongly advocates mediation instead of litigation as the former is the cost-effective, stress-free, time efficient approach and is not uncertain. No wonder he has 100% success as a mediator given he is meticulous, detail-oriented, logical, and has uncanny knack for visualizing a solution which is a win-win for both the parties at the table and above all, a true passion for conflict resolution.
While the prospect of having to go through a divorce is not pleasant, I strongly recommend meeting Venky even before hiring an attorney.”
