We put serious effort into applications, with the goal of effective implementation of our clients' patent strategies. Where applicable, our patent services include the following features:
A professional-grade patent application is more than a paper detailing an invention—it is a legal instrument designed to implement a patent strategy.
Patent claims define the metes and bounds of the invention and form the core of the legal property right a patent is intended to protect.
Patent drawings are a unique form of technical drawing, designed to accompany the application's specification and claims.
Specifications accompany the claims and drawings to provide the disclosure of the invention, and it's important a specification properly disclose the invention.
Oftentimes, there is a need for an inventor's rights to be transferred. We include basic assignment agreements where necessary to file.
All involved with a patent application owe a duty of disclosure. Preparation of one Information Disclosure Statement ( IDS ) is included in our base price.
Once a non-provisional utility or design patent application is filed, we track it through completion and keep you apprised of its progress.
A prosecution strategy must be designed to implement your patent strategy. We counsel on options, and can help you decide which path to take.
Over 80% of applications—including those ultimately allowed—receive at least one rejection. We advise on, prepare, and file responses to such Office Actions.
In some instances, it is helpful to conduct an interview with the patent examiner to better understand an Office Action or advance a case.
When an impasse in prosecution is reached, it may become necessary to file an appeal to the Patent Trial & Appeal Board ( PTAB ).
The specification and claims of a patent, particularly if the invention be at all complicated, constitute one of the most difficult legal instruments to draw with accuracy.
As an intellectual property boutique, our practice runs the gamut of patents, trademarks, copyrights, trade secrets, and business law.
