The Firm

At Leonard, Patel & Olson, P.C. (LPO), we appreciate that intellectual property rights can play a vital role in the success or failure of any organization, large or small, complex or simple, old or new. We understand that our long-term success is directly related to the long-term success and satisfaction of our clients. As a result, we go to great lengths to tailor our services to the needs of our clients so that our focus on quality and efficiency can result in a competitive business advantage for our clients.

Leonard, Patel & Olson only employs professionals that have experience handling intellectual property matters. In addition, our clients can rest assured that they are not paying to train new associates or subsidize extravagant summer recruiting programs.

Also, we give our clients an option to compensate us based on a per-project rate, as opposed to an hourly rate. As the fee for each project is determined well in advance, our clients are not surprised by exorbitant legal fees or left wondering whether the number of hours billed is commensurate with the work performed. This not only enhances client satisfaction but also enables our clients to better forecast the cost of legal services and make well-informed business decisions about their intellectual property endeavors.

In addition, our internal policies and procedures are designed to truly place the interests of our clients first. Unlike many firms, we do not have self-serving performance metrics such as a billable hours requirement. This allows us to focus more time and energy on the interests of our clients because it eliminates the distractions and counter incentives that often accompany such metrics. It also contributes to a far more satisfying work environment, which promotes efficiency and firm stability by reducing employee turnover.

Further, Leonard, Patel & Olson has proudly implemented a highly efficient business model by minimizing unnecessary overhead expenses such as extensive office space and flashy marketing strategies. This enables us to pass on considerable savings to our clients without sacrificing work product quality. In other words, it means that our clients receive all the benefits off a large, more traditional law firm but without having to pay the large, more traditional legal bills.

These and other examples represent how our client-driven focus on quality, efficiency, and client relations results in very real business advantages for our clients; because our long-term success is directly affected by the long-term success of our clients.
