We have used Infotech North to do very complex patent and technical searching for many years.  Brenda’s ability to find even very obscure references is prodigious.  She also has the technical understanding to pre-screen much of the search material to optimize our time efficiency in being able to access diverse search results.  I recommend Brenda unreservedly."

Anybody in the medical device business knows the importance of patent protection. Getting a complete and accurate picture of the IP landscape, prior art, etc., before you file your own patents is vital to the success of your venture. Brenda conducts more complete searches and peels the onion back far more layers than anyone else I've used to do patent searches, all within budget. You won't find a better IP search firm, period.

Infotech North has repeatedly found patents, publications, and other prior art missed in searches conducted by experienced law firms and others. Brenda has also effectively interfaced with inventors and researchers concerning their publications, prior art, and other matters. 

A key strength is her willingness and ability to develop a knowledge and understanding of the search topic, which enables her to more accurately conduct a focused search. 

Brenda is always willing to “go the extra mile” to insure a through and accurate search no matter how difficult.
