Patents

Whether you’re a startup preparing for funding rounds, a growing company navigating global markets, or a mature business protecting decades of innovation, our team helps align your patents with your commercial objectives.

At the heart of our patent practice is a deep understanding of science, technology, and the industries we serve. Many of our patent attorneys have engineering degrees and real-world experience as in-house counsel or industry professionals. This allows us to speak your language, understand your innovations in context, and craft patent strategies that deliver tangible value.

We handle all aspects of domestic and international patent law—from drafting and prosecuting patent applications, to managing global portfolios and litigating high-stakes disputes. We also advise on freedom-to-operate, handle licensing, perform due diligence, and develop enforcement strategies, always keeping your bottom line in focus.

Our clients range from startups to global Fortune 500 companies across a wide range of industries and technologies. We are particularly known for our ability to clearly and persuasively explain complex technology in forums ranging from the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) to federal courtrooms.
