Custom-tailored Patents
We work hard to understand your business and investigate your competition. We then formulate a cost effective strategy that will protect investment and provide leverage in the market.
Valuable Patents Have Strong Claims
A patent is only as valuable as it’s claims. Do the claims cover your product? Your competitor’s product? Do they address potential design arounds? Expert claim drafting is our core strength and focus because it will define the value of your patent. Understanding your invention and your business allows us to answer these questions and prepare valuable patent claims.
We Advocate For You
Preparing a robust disclosure and valuable claim set is only half the battle. After an application is filed, we zealously advocate on your behalf at the US Patent Office to ensure that you obtain the broadest patent grant in the shortest amount of time. In almost every US case, we advocate on your behalf directly with the Examiner. We also maintain an extensive network of IP firms outside the US that work closely with foreign patent offices to represent you on all fronts.
