We use our unique patent process to obtain patents that our clients can use to obtain a legal advantage over their competitors. We focus on obtaining patents that will stand up to challenges by competitors in court so that such patents can be used successfully in litigation or for offensive or defensive purposes in contract negotiations, financings, and acquisitions. Our goal is always to add value to our clients’ patent portfolios by strategically obtaining, maintain, and enforcing broad, strong, and defensible patents.
The following is a small sample of the U.S. patents that we have obtained for our clients. We have obtained foreign versions of many of these patents for our clients through our international network of patent law firms.
