Trademark
Legal Hoop responded within minutes of my request. They refiled my trademark the next day and I heard back from USTPO within 24 hours. I would definitely recommend them to anyone who is needing trademark or business licensing.

Great Company
The rep was very responsive. Always kept me in the loop. Also the price was reasonable. They gave me hope when other companies wanted to charge outrageous prices as they told me to give up on sending in a trademark dispute.
