About COFFYLAW, LLC
COFFYLAW, LLC is a Maplewood, New Jersey law firm built around intellectual property, with additional practices in immigration and business law. From its office at 515 Valley St #1, the firm serves inventors, entrepreneurs, brand owners, and established companies across New Jersey and beyond, with consultations available by phone at (973) 352-0650 during weekday hours of 9:00 AM to 6:00 PM.
The core of the practice is patents and trademarks: filing and defending patents, patent litigation defense, trademark registration and enforcement, trademark infringement litigation, copyright and copyright infringement litigation, trade dress, trade secrets, licensing, and rights of publicity and privacy. The firm also lists work in standard essential patents and FRAND matters, patent expert witness engagements, antitrust, artificial intelligence, e-commerce, and civil litigation. Attorneys on the team include Emmanuel Coffy alongside Fritzner L. Altidor, Leonard Boyer, Omprakash Sringeri, John J. Delatush, Jean-Hiram Coffy, and Darrell Fertakos, with technical staff supporting the patent side. Beyond IP, the firm advertises immigration law, business formation, mergers and acquisitions, contract drafting and negotiation, contract disputes, business dissolution, mediation, bankruptcy and mortgage foreclosure defense, tax, and business advisory services spanning strategic planning, process automation, digital transformation, innovation management, and cybersecurity.
The firm publishes resources for clients weighing an idea’s protection, including a guide for app developers, a book on the value of ideas, podcasts, a video library, case studies, and a patent search option, and it offers a free initial consultation.
Across 24 ratings and an average of 4.30, written reviews repeatedly highlight the consultation experience. Clients describe detailed initial reviews of licensing contracts, clear explanations of copyright and intellectual property ownership questions, patient answers to trademark inquiries, and step-by-step guidance through patent applications. Immigration clients credit the team with preparing them for a visa adjustment interview that was approved smoothly. Reviewers also point to the firm’s engineering backgrounds and prior Patent Office experience as reasons they trusted the technical side of their filings, and one notes fair pricing for the work.
The record is not uniform. Several one-star reviews describe unanswered phone calls and communication failures, and a few raise billing disputes or errors in immigration paperwork; the firm has publicly disputed at least one of those accounts. Most ratings are five stars, but the negative entries are detailed enough to be worth noting for prospective clients who prioritize frequent phone contact.
