Gearhart Law
Gearhart Law is a Summit, New Jersey intellectual property firm serving inventors, startups, and businesses nationwide with patents, trademarks, copyrights, IP litigation, and related business law services.
Strengths
- Full-service intellectual property practice covering patents, trademarks, copyrights, IP litigation, and related business law and commercial transactions.
- Strong appeal to startups, entrepreneurs, inventors, and small businesses, including clients with little prior IP experience.
- Reviewers consistently praise responsiveness, clear communication, patience, and strategic guidance throughout patent and trademark matters.
- Named attorneys, especially David Postolski and James Klobucar, are frequently cited for expertise, diligence, and effective USPTO interactions.
- Capable of handling domestic and international filings, including international trademark registration and patents or trademarks in multiple countries.
Considerations
- One critical review reported a trademark rejection involving alleged filing errors and a request for additional fees; the firm's owner response disputes that account and says USPTO procedures were followed.
- Patent and trademark prosecution can be lengthy; at least one reviewer described a long process that ultimately ended successfully.
