Hickman looks forward to growing his client base:

“I am excited about the new opportunities this opens for myself and the firm. I see being both a Registered Patent Attorney and a Board Certified Lawyer as amongst the two highest distinctions in my field.”

“Luca is an energetic, thoughtful and goal-driven person and lawyer. He strives to do those things that will set him apart from others, and his pursuit of this Florida Bar Board Certification in Intellectual Property is a reflection of the same.”
