A different kind of law firm

Our patent prosecution and licensing strategies are designed to serve the following objectives:

• We obtain issued patents: Our highly efficient negation strategies serve to expedite issuance of your patent with the minimum number of office actions and by avoiding unnecessary appeals.
• We secure broad patent claims to protect against competitors: Although we strive for expedited issuance, we do not compromise the scope of your protection.
• We provide economically balanced protection: Our attorneys are versed on all relevant case law and effectively balance the need for broad protection with the need for issued and enforceable patents and trademarks.  We protect what you need to compete. Please note that we have a published patent and trademark fee schedule to help you gauge the costs of obtaining patents, trademarks and other intellectual property protection.

• We avoid litigation, contested claims and challenges to your rights: With effective drafting strategies, we avoid ambiguity and overly-broad un-enforceable claims, and quickly deal with issues and allegations regarding competing legal rights to patents, trademarks and other intellectual property.
  
• We provide superior legal experience: Our team of registered patent attorneys includes a former USPTO patent examiner, a NIH researcher, litigation counsel and a CPA trained in valuation issues. Our attorneys have worked on patents for the Department of Defense, NASA and Fortune 500 companies.
• We increase our clients' success in commercializing and licensing technology: Our attorneys are skilled in licensing negotiations, FDA approval, funding, valuation and other issues essential to your company's successful commercialization of its innovations.
