We created a boutique intellectual property firm for one reason – to be able to provide clients Tier 1 expertise and service. Our clients do not get young lawyers or lawyers who do not know the area working on their matters. They get two very experienced and well trained IP lawyers. Our practice focuses exclusively on trademark, copyright, advertising and unfair competition law. We left “BigLaw” because the business model is broken and a losing proposition for the clients. Trademark litigation does not require an army!. We are very different. We care about our clients. We actually like our clients and can give personal service to our clients because we are not stuck in the “BigLaw” model. We represent businesses, ad agencies and individuals. Ask us for names – we’re glad to provide references.. We provide advice, counseling, and build and protect intellectual property portfolios, but in a cost-effective and efficient manner. Our clients get our 50 years of experience - and our global contacts. Just part of our personal service.. However, we also litigate to the end if need be. We never “walk” our clients into needless lawsuits, but when the need arises, we will vigorously PROTECT and DEFEND our client’s interests against anyone.

We at Leeseberg Tuttle are passionate about representing our clients' interests and getting the best possible results for them. Our success is a matter of public record, and we have obtained record high verdicts in numerous cases throughout Ohio and other states.

This allows us to retain the very best medical experts in the country to assist our clients in their cases. Because of our success and reputation for integrity, we are often consulted by physicians and their family members when they themselves have been the victims of medical malpractice.  We do not advertise on television or radio.  Many of our clients are referred to us by other attorneys who are familiar with our professional experience, success, and aggressive representation on behalf of our clients.
