The people at Hanna IP look out for our best interests…

Hanna IP has worked with us over the last five years providing us with advice on an international patent filing strategy. We have been granted a patent in the US and are well on our way in several other jurisdictions. Hanna IP has also advised us on a world-wide trade mark filing strategy.

John took a keen interest in our technology and outlined the benefits of the patent process without jargon…

I have been working with John Hanna for almost ten years. At our first meeting I discovered that John had a background in Aeronautical Engineering. This suited us as we are in the aerospace sector, dealing and competing with numerous aerospace multinationals. From the outset John took a keen interest in our technology and outlined the benefits of the patent process without jargon. He helped us to secure patents in Europe, America, Russia and China. John has an ability to listen and to read between the lines and often acted as a sounding board for commercial strategy. Over the years we have worked with Hanna IP they have never over charged us for their work. I would highly recommend John and his team to anyone in the aerospace sector.

Hanna IP provided us with advice in relation to trade marks and domain names. They acted for us in a domain name dispute against a US based Corporation and guided us through the procedures to negotiate a settlement with the US Corporation. Hanna IP provided us with a high level of service in relation to both the trade mark issue and the domain name dispute and we were able to settle both matters without having to go to court. We were delighted with the level of service provided at a fair price.

Hanna IP have offered me great advice and guidance in relation to patent and trade mark matters world-wide.

Hanna IP is an excellent law firm whose patent attorneys possess a wealth of experience both in all technical fields and in legal aspects. I have worked quite often with the founder and named partner John Hanna, and it has been great working with him. He is a strategic-thinker, responsive, and excellent in interacting with clients. In particular, I always appreciate his approach to understanding and accommodating to the client’s needs and bringing to the table a clear business perspective for the client. When my Italian clients have an IP issue to deal with in the UK or Irish context, or even need to hear some opinions in order to define the best strategy about a complex case in the European scenario, I know that John Hanna and the professionals of Hanna IP are the best option.

Straightforward to deal with, we look forward to continuing to work with them in the future…

We have worked with John and his team on various projects over the past seven years. Recently, Hanna IP filed a number of trade mark applications on our behalf, which were registered on time and within our budget. The Hanna IP team took the time to travel to our office to get a better understanding of what our company wanted to accomplish in terms of protection. They provided us with an easy to read description and timeline of the trade mark process and costs involved, allowing us to plan ahead. Hanna IP have been straightforward to deal with so far and we look forward to continuing to work with them in the future.
