Our Services
Understanding whether your invention is eligible for a patent is the first crucial step. Our patent law attorneys in Austin conduct thorough IP assessments to determine if your idea meets the criteria for patentability. We evaluate the novelty, non-obviousness, and utility of your invention to ensure it qualifies for patent protection.
A provisional patent application allows you to establish an early filing date and obtain “patent pending” status. Transitioning from a provisional to a non-provisional patent application is essential for securing long-term protection. We help you prepare and file robust applications that cover all aspects of your invention, ensuring they meet the stringent requirements of the USPTO.
Conducting a thorough patent search is vital to determine if your invention is unique. Our patents attorney in Austin will perform an extensive search of existing patents and publications to verify the novelty of your idea. This step is crucial for avoiding potential rejections and ensuring your application is strong.
