Patent Services

Properly protecting your inventions of products, processes, designs, etc. is essential for:

  • protecting your ownership of them and
  • maximizing their profitability. 

 

We can help you with:

  • knowing if your invention is patentable,
  • knowing whether you are likely to be granted a patent,
  • deciding which type of patent application is appropriate, 
  • filing the application,
  • working to get the application approved,
  • renewal and enforcement of patent rights, and
  • licensing.

We will work with you throughout the application process to ensure your application meets stringent requirements and that your rights receive maximum protection.

Once your patent is granted, or if you already have a patent, we will work with you to ensure your rights are properly maintained and develop licensing agreements that protect your rights and help you make money from your patented invention.
