"It was my first time entering into the complex world of inventing. I made a phone call to Martin Earley at Baxter IP Patent Attorneys in Melbourne. Martin understood my complex invention very quickly. I was very impressed by how he could understand my invention in just one short phone call. He explained the step-by-step processes and actions I needed to take. Then after a few face-to-face meetings with Martin, I was armed with detailed drawings and a broad detailed description of my invention . Martin has been able to put it all together into a strong and robust provisional patent application. He has not left a rock unturned in his attention to detail. Baxter IP really has only the best patent attorneys working for them. I’d highly recommend that anyone thinking of inventing, call Baxter IP and speak to one of their patent attorneys. I sincerely believe if you want quality, well you pay for what you get."
