United States patent attorneys prepare and file U.S. patent applications, international (PCT) applications, foreign national applications (through a broad network of international associates) and U.S. national filings for foreign associates in many countries.

Throughout the patent application process: from a search for prior art, to drafting of a utility or design application, to filing an application, and to prosecution and appeals; United States patent attorneys bring experience and commitment to delivering the best possible services for our clients.

United States patent attorneys thoroughly reviewing each invention, working closely with the inventor (or referring attorney) to gain detailed disclosure about the invention and to explore all aspects of the invention. This process of “front loading” the application enables United States patent attorneys to explore the broadest claims and to draft patents with a comprehensive view of the invention and to provide deterrence for infringements.

We work with well-respected and trustworthy foreign patent attorneys through our work with the International Association for the Protection of Intellectual Property (AIPPI).
