Our Attorneys

We have worked with Michael Petock for several years to establish and protect our firm’s intellectual property.  Michael is very knowledgeable in all things IP and has been instrumental in helping us navigate the complex USPTO process.  He has successfully negotiated several IP infringement issues on our behalf and has done so effectively and efficiently.  I highly recommend Petock & Petock for intellectual property work.

Mr. Petock worked tirelessly to ensure that Camp Abilities: an overnight educational sports camp for children with visual impairments received our trademark for not only our camp name, but for our two motto's "A Loss of Sight, Never a Loss of Vision", & "Believe You Can Achieve". He overcame barriers, ensured us there were no other programs with our name, and pushed me to do the work we needed to do on our end. His dedication, commitment and passion for our program for children with disabilities was very impressive. Michael Petock is a professional, caring, and talented Lawyer with amazing skills and the ability to make this world a better place every day. I am so glad that my father is his friend and I met him! He helped my camp tremendously!

My brother and I recently opened a new winery in California where naming and visual branding is essential.  This was an area which we knew very little about, but understood the importance of establishing and protecting brand identity.  Having opened in a major wine region, we assumed the best way of going about this was hiring local legal assistance to register our trademarks.  Surprisingly we found contradictory advice and massive ranges in pricing which made us both hesitant and lacking in confindence regarding whom to hire.  Through a fortunate encounter with a mutual acquaintance, I was referred to Michael Petock.  Mr. Petock logically and competently walked me through the steps we would be taking, always kept me informed of where we stood throughout the process, and ultimately successfully achieved our goal of protecting our brand.  As a new business, we were faced with many legal and financial hurdles and I can say that Michael Petock's trademark assistance made those hurdles far less of a burden than we ever thought possible.

We were sued in Pennsylvania on a trademark case, we live in Georgia and we had to find an attorney in Pennsylvania quick. Checking on the internet I called attorney after attorney.  I was so disappointed when I spoke to them, their fees were off the chart. Mind you these were the so called “Super Lawyers”- big firms that promise you the world and reach for your wallet.  They do not care about you, they want your money, your just a number. I kept looking and found Petock & Petock.  A family run law firm. After speaking to Michael Petock, I knew he was the one to handle our case.  He actually listened to us and his fees were half what the big firms would charge. We felt Mr. Petock actually cared.  Mr. Petock organized our case and came up with a strategic plan of defense.  He took our stress level way down.  His plan was pure law, pure genius.  He worked around the clock and even called us on weekends just to let us know he was in our corner. We were so lucky to have chosen Petock & Petock.  Our lives and business are back to normal.  In fact, to this day I only use their law firm for all of my business needs, trademark registrations, patents, and copyrights.  Good advice, good planning. Thank you Michael Petock for a job well done.  Thank you for the personal attention you gave us.
