A patent is a right granted to an inventor by the federal government that permits the inventor to exclude others from making, selling, or using the invention for a period of time. U.S. patents are issued by the United States Patent and Trademark Office. Generally, the term of a new patent is 20 years from the date on which the application for the patent was filed in the United States.

What will we do for you?

We fill out forms, draft the patent application, and the written arguments in response to an office action.  We also interview the examiner.  An effective examiner interview can reduce the pendency and associated costs of the application process by eliminating subsequent Office Action rejections.
