I worked with MacLaughlan and Donaldson over the past 12 months. I found them to be excellent. In particular I worked with Nikos Minas who i found to be really superb. He was engaging and meticulous throughout. I am new to patents and Nikos explained all aspects of the process. Really appreciate all you help and cant recommend them highly enough
It is always a difficult time when seeing a professional from legal domain. I met Dr. Nikos Minas from McLachlan and Donaldson through a business connection of mine to present my need of having to be represented for my invention and patent.
At first I had different advises from different places but Dr. Nikos Minas had explained in detail the process, step by step, benefits of the chosen path with long lasting impacts, not only in Ireland but with European level and at later stage for International application.
Very pleased with all the professional services.
I have just submitted a patent to the USPTO which is an update to 2 previously granted US patents. I engaged MacLachlan & Donaldson to advise,direct and manage the application process.The Team at M&D restructured and refined the specification, drawings and the Claims to meet the requirements of the USPTO but also to fully extend the breath and depth potential for the Claims.The Team were experienced, knowledgeable, dedicated and were upfront with valuable comments, suggestions and advise. A complex patent application is hard work, stressful and very frustrating. The input, effort, energy and enthusiasm of the M&D team made the overall experience fairly painless. It was a pleasure to work with M&D.
Excellent Dublin-based firm specializing in IP law. We have found their advice to be sound and their tactics and strategies expertly informed and creative. They are also friendly and focused on customer satisfaction.
I have found MacLachan & Donaldson to be efficient and knowledgeable and easy to deal with. I would recommend them and would readily use them again.
In my particular case, I request an advice to MacLachlan & Donaldson, in order to register a product under the framework of the European Union. Their knowledge is broad and their councils precise. When I have completed the forms, I will re-apply for their services.
