Melissa Hunter-Ensor at Greenberg Traurig assisted my biotech startup with a complex patent application for a novel diagnostic tool. Her technical knowledge in biotechnology and life sciences was evident, and her recognition in patent law is well-deserved. She provided a solid legal framework and her analysis of the prior art was thorough. However, the experience was mixed. While the final work product was good, there were significant delays in receiving drafts, and responses to emails often took several days, which was stressful given our tight development timeline. For straightforward legal advice, she is certainly capable, but the process felt less collaborative than I had hoped. Her two years of focused experience post-law school show promise, and she clearly understands the nuances of health care and patent law. For a matter where immediate, frequent updates aren't critical, she would be a reasonable choice. I left feeling the work was professionally done, but the client service aspect could be more attentive.
