Andy Jacobson is my go-to for all things legal. I've engaged with Andy on several matters, several times. Each time I've won my case(s) and met my objectives. Some items Bay Oak Law has navigated and achieved for us are: acquiring valuable patents (and defending them), implementing best business practices, even some sensitive, urgent personal matters; all the while enjoying the many benefits of working with a genuine, caring, intelligent & unique human being. Being represented by Andy, via his methodology, makes me confident as well as courageous, to develop future endeavors. Moreover, he has added more to my firms’ operating abilities. Most notable is the all-important risk mitigation expertise. Yet, perhaps most importantly a formidable partner with a highly responsive team. That's empowerment! Unusually, I met Andy merely by calling his office. I wasn't personally referred. I soon realized I'd stumbled upon a master in the field of law. In short, an incredible addition. — Client 08/30/2023 |

I had the pleasure of connecting with Andrew when I was targeted by a lawyer that, in my estimation, would fall into the category of being a "Copyright Troll". This event was stressful and I wasn’t sure where to turn for guidance as I had never faced a legal issue before. The very first call I made was to Bay Oak Law and I’m so glad I did! Andrew took the time to hear me out, look over all aspects related to my case, and gave his professional opinion on where I stood. The peace of mind Andrew’s professionalism granted me cannot be overstated. Andrew is caring, generous with his time, and above all else, an incredible pro that should be your first stop should you have any legal questions pertaining to intellectual property or business. Thanks so much, Andrew! I look forward to being in touch should I need help in the future. — Ryan S. 08/04/2020 |

Andy gave me a sense of empowerment as I navigated through a tough business issue with a potential business partner, and this was very valuable for me. As a small business owner, I felt confident knowing I had Andy as an advisor through this process.{para}In terms of communication style, Andy employs some strategies that made me realize I was in good hands there, as well. He makes sure he understands completely what your needs are before acting, which results in very thorough legal representation. — Client 10/03/2016 |

When My roommate and I were caught off guard with an intellectual property suit we were nervous to say the least. We did some research and I called Andrew from Bay Oak Law. It was the best decision I could have made. He was an immense comfort. He consulted me over the phone and helped me get a realistic view of how to handle things. He had a low retainer fee and was able to help negotiate with the other party. He was incredibly professional and at the same time he made a very personal connection and helped me keep a level head. He genuinely wanted to help me and it never seemed like money was any part of his motivation. He worked with me to keep my fee affordable and I was even able to get back part of my retainer. — Patrick B. 02/11/2013 |

I think every small and medium size business should have a lawyer whom they know and trust. You may not need a lawyer today, but you will need one. This is a requisite for business. Today business is intense and competitive. You will need someone on your side when legal issues arise. You don’t want to meander around for a lawyer when you are in a "not so good situation". Look for a small business lawyer when you don’t need one. If he knows about your company, ie, how long you have been in business, what your company does, amount of employees, location, etc., he can serve you when needed. I have been using Andy Of Bay Oak Law Firm for 8 years. He has saved me quite a bit of money, and time. More importantly, he understands me and my business and his advice is commendable. I highly recommend him. — Peter R. 04/09/2012 |

I needed advice for a video project and got a referral to attorney Andrew K. Jacobson for a thirty minute consultation. He was very friendly and helpful, answering all my questions about copyright and other intellectual property matters. I would definitely recommend him to anyone who needs legal advice in the areas that he specializes in. He explains the law in clear and easy to understand terms and he is also fun to talk to! — Ying L. 03/04/2012 |

I worked with Andrew last year with some tax status issues regarding my business. Even though he was going through some major health issues that precluded his full participation, he worked with me to find a simple solution to my issue. He’s a friendly, intelligent attorney who listens to his clients. — Jeff D. 03/09/2016 |

I’m confused. I contacted this law firm over 1 week ago and spent a good amount of time explaining my needs as a small business owner in the East Bay. I was assured that one of Bay Oaks lawyers would contact me right away so we could begin our work together. This never happened. I called several times today, but was never able to speak to a human being. I left one message, but did not receive a return call. I am very disappointed with the lack of interest and customer service. — Susan R. 04/07/2015 |
