Our tailored approach starts with a patent evaluation. That’s because we first want to know if a patent is available to you. And if so, we want to confirm it will benefit your goals.

Here are the most frequently asked questions, along with our expert insights.
In the US, a patent is a property right granted by the government. It gives the patentee the right to exclude others from making, using, or selling the patented invention in the US for a period of time.
The average time it will take to get a patent is 22-30 months from the date you file your patent application. This time frame will range depending on the type of patent you are seeking and the level of complexity behind your patent.

Generally, the typical cost for a patent will range between $1,000 and $20,000.
This range of thousands of dollars hinges on how much you decide to do yourself, how many claims you want to claim within your patent application, and the extent to which you utilize a patent attorney. Note that the bottom of the range is only possible if you entirely manage the process yourself and only need to pay Patent Office fees.
Read more about patent costs and what factors most determine how much you will spend.
No, you do not need a model or prototype to file for a patent application. But you do need to have enough information to explain your invention to someone who is capable of making it, such as a manufacturer.
That said, prototypes can be very useful. Find out more about how prototypes can benefit your patent process.
“Patent pending” means that you have a patent application filed with the US Patent and Trademark Office for your invention.

Read more about how the “poor man’s patent” myth came to be and what constitutes true legal protection under US patent law.
While that can vary depending on circumstances surrounding your particular trademark, the whole process typically takes about a year to complete.
