WHAT WE OFFER

If you’ve created something new — a product, process, or technology — it’s more than just an idea; it’s your hard work, creativity, and competitive edge. But in today’s fast-moving world, someone else could copy it, claim it, and profit from it if you don’t protect it legally.

Patent Filing gives you exclusive rights over your invention. It ensures that no one else can make, use, sell, or distribute your invention without your permission — turning your innovation into a protected business asset.

At Lincenzo, we help inventors, entrepreneurs, researchers, and companies file patents quickly, correctly, and strategically so they can safeguard their innovation and gain a market advantage.

I had approached the company regarding PSARA registration and RNI registration and interacted with the sales team, particularly Kajal and Aakash. Unfortunately, my experience with both of them was extremely disappointing. They seemed to have very limited knowledge about the services they were handling and provided incorrect information. What was even more concerning was the way they communicated with me. Kajal, in particular, was extremely rude, disrespectful, and unprofessional during the conversation. As a customer, I found her tone and manner of speaking completely unacceptable. I genuinely feel that customers should be provided with accurate information and treated respectfully, especially when they are seeking professional services. The purpose of this review is not to create unnecessary conflict, but to highlight the way I was treated and the misinformation I received. However, I would like to specifically appreciate Shivani from the operations team. I spoke with her regarding my queries, and she was very polite, professional, and patient. She genuinely listened to my concerns and provided me with the correct information. Shivani, thank you so much for handling the matter professionally and for giving me the right guidance. I truly appreciate your support. I hope the management takes this feedback seriously and ensures that customers receive both accurate information and respectful communication from the sales team.
