"I have had a professional relationship with David Hill for almost 40 years. I believe I was his first client when he joined Finnegan, Henderson as a young patent attorney. During that entire time, and over the course of my building two different corporations from concepts to full commercialization, his advice and counsel have been invaluable. He has helped me to prosecute over 20 patents, file trademarks, and defend our Company against a predatory infringement litigation. He has also been helpful in our efforts to license certain technologies we wanted to manufacture or market, and out-license some of our own technology to others. In all of my dealings with Dave, I have known him to be totally professional, objective, and thoroughly knowledgeable about the body of intellectual property law and regulations; punctual in delivering all work product in the agreed time frame and highly effective in his communications skills."
