3 practice areas, 3 completely different ways of paying a lawyer.

Personal injury: contingency. The fee is a percentage of the recovery, and costs are accounted for separately.

Criminal defense: retainer. You are buying immediate work on a case where nobody is recovering money.

Intellectual property: flat fee or hourly. A trademark or patent filing is a defined scope, so it gets a defined price.

You have TWO YEARS from the date of someone passing to file a wrongful death lawsuit on their behalf. There are some exceptions, but this is your baseline standard.

Miss it, and you miss the opportunity to sue.

(772) 283-2004 - the consultations are free.

How does a trademark actually become registered?

You apply to the United States Patent and Trademark Office. Kevin Crosby calls it a somewhat complicated process, and the reason is the form itself: there is a lot you need to know to put the correct information into it.

File it, and the application gets assigned to an examiner.

Your call should be returned the same day. That is the whole standard.

It sounds small next to the legal work, and it is the thing clients notice most. Punctual, professional, and the job actually finished: that is what people mean when they say a firm was good to deal with.

Vaul A. put it more briefly than we just did. Thank you for the review.

Florida law tells you to move your car. Do this first.

Once the vehicles are off the road, where they came to rest is gone. Positions, impact area, debris. That is the part of a crash scene nobody can rebuild later from memory.

Take out your phone and photograph it before you comply.

Being charged does not make you the worst version of yourself.

It makes you a person inside a process that is frightening and unfamiliar, usually for the first time. How that process is explained to you changes how survivable it feels.

Valeria G. put her account of Paul Aloise's work into writing. We are grateful she took the time.

Four things to keep in mind, and the fourth one happens after the handcuffs.

Paul M. Aloise, Jr. runs through a Florida DUI stop from the first question to the station.

Call (772) 283-2004.

When does the patent clock actually start?

At filing. Not at issue, not at approval, not when the certificate arrives for the wall.

So a three year wait at the patent office is three years of a twenty year term already spent.

Your license case starts before your criminal case does.

The suspension is administrative. It runs on its own track through the DHSMV, on its own deadline, and a courtroom is not involved.

A breath sample over 0.08 triggers six months. A refusal triggers twelve.
