In 1958, the average time a large corporation qualified for the S&P 500 as 57 years.  Fifty years later in 2008, the average time had dropped to 18 years.  Competition is increasingly fierce, demanding constant innovation.  If you have invented valuable intellectual property, you need to protect it in order to profit from it.  Otherwise others can copy your innovation and reap the rewards of your hard work. Let us help you turn your ideas into valuable property.

Patent Search

We usually begin the patent process with search to see if anyone else has had an idea similar to yours.  If we don't find similar ideas, your idea is more likely to win broad patent protection.  However, even if we find some similar art, we can use those results to develop intellectual property that allows you to benefit from the inventive elements you have added to the solution.

Filing an Application

We work with you to draft an effective patent application that protects the many ways your innovation can be implemented.  Our attorneys have deep industry experience and understand how to turn invention into products.  As a result, we can anticipate how your competition will try to get around your patent.

Examination

Patent examination can be extremely expensive without a good plan.  We create applications with multiple ways of protecting your invention, so that rejections and objections can be quickly resolved, minimizing the costs.

Profiting from Your Invention

There are a number of effective strategies including licensing and business development that you can pursue to profit from your invention.  We can help you identify and embark on the strategy that works best for you.
