Our patent attorneys then estimate the likelihood of whether your patent application will be accepted by the patent office.

The most important part of a patent application is its claims. Proper claim drafting requires know-how and expertise. Our team of experts work closely with you to prepare a strong claim.

In addition to filing a complete patent application, our patent attorneys can also communicate with the Patent Office on your behalf. Throughout the entire prosecution process, they can prepare amendments and respond to any required changes at the request of the Patent Office to save you the hassle.
