Working with Nicole has been an exceptional experience. As our organization navigated the complexities of licensing our Riding in the Moment program for individuals living with dementia, Nicole expertly guided us through every step of the intellectual property process. From drafting and reviewing contracts to advising on licensing strategies and best practices, she helped us build a strong legal framework that will allow us to responsibly expand the program's reach within the equine-assisted services industry.
What sets Nicole apart is her ability to translate complex legal concepts into practical, understandable guidance. She took the time to understand our mission, anticipate potential challenges, and provide thoughtful solutions that balanced legal protection with our desire to make the program accessible to others. Throughout the process, she was responsive, collaborative, and genuinely invested in our success.
Nicole's expertise, integrity, and strategic counsel have been invaluable to Hearts & Horses. We are deeply grateful for her generous pro bono support and would wholeheartedly recommend her to any organization seeking an intellectual property attorney who combines exceptional legal knowledge with a true commitment to helping mission-driven organizations thrive.

We are extremely pleased with the exceptional services provided by Santangelo Law Offices in managing our intellectual property. In the competitive landscape of professional sports, having a reliable partner like Santangelo Law Offices has been instrumental. We highly recommend their services to anyone looking for a proactive and dedicated intellectual property firm.

One of the things BHI found from using Santangelo was their ability to adapt copyright law to a very unusual set of circumstances and artwork. We, after all, work with fossils.
Probably the best thing about Santangelo Law services is the personal interactions and obvious interest in our products and ideas as well as the ability to brainstorm and adapt to changing circumstances.
The friendly atmosphere provided by the staff has been a very important and reassuring aspect of our interactions. I think that Luke surrounds himself with people who like people and are truly interested in helping those people find solutions to their problems.

As a whole, the folks in the office are friendly, trustworthy and are willing to entertain any and all questions. Santangelo has the diversity of expertise, the ability to think broadly about an invention, and the ability to ask the inventor pertinent questions. Moreover, they don't try to push patenting at any cost, but instead make sure that it is the correct business decision for you.
Generally, one believes attorneys will intentionally run up charges and always exceed budget numbers. In fact, Santangelo works within a budget, and makes sure one considers the costs and benefits carefully prior to starting a project.
Santangelo's services are provided in a very professional yet friendly and honest manner. Services are cost effective compared to many other patent attorneys when one considers breadth of IP, guidance on use of IP and expertise in rendering the original IP in such a way as to minimize further expenses.
Santangelo sends out the best Christmas cards ever! We save them and can't wait for the next one!

Santangelo has been a valuable adversary who I have the deepest respect for as a counsel. I learned a lot about a world I did not know, valuing your guidance from start to end. Thank you for your generous assistance in my intellectual property battle. I admire you for your wisdom to make the relationship with your colleague on the other side a big part of your methodology! How come lawyers have such a poor reputation when the profession has people like you?!

I have been working with Santangelo Law and Nicole Ressue since 2018. Nicole has quickly assimilated tough concepts and defended them with examiners. I can say that all my interactions have been a pleasure.
