Ira Domnitz is the most effective and efficient patent attorneys I have worked with. I have been involved in the filing and prosecution of over 80 patents, being a principal inventor and co inventor. Ira took my invention draft and quickly converted into a patent application which was filed in Jan 2020. The patent was allowed in Nov 2021 with only one office action that was quickly dispensed by ira and all the claims were allowed. I believe this was the fastest and most cost effective patent filings I have experienced in my career.

The best law firm I’ve ever seen. Got into my accident August 27th 2025, I called Mr. Juren after I left the hospital and before I knew it someone was coming to my house to 1st ask me how was I feeling and once I got all of the details out the way we were working on a master plan. The other driver didn’t have insurance but thank god I had uninsured motorist coverage and other coverage on my policy. Jurens team was able to get me the max and gave me good advice to make sure I’ll be good at the end of this. When it was time for payment they called me immediately and gave me a time to come pick up my checks. I highly recommend this amazing group to anyone. From August 2025- January 2025 I must say that’s almost perfect timing. I highly appreciate you all and highly recommend this team to anyone
