Why Your Legal Services Must Match Your Innovation

Innovation moves quickly. The legal side often moves slowly. That mismatch creates risk: public disclosure before filings, narrow protection, missed licensing opportunities, enforcement gaps, or unmanaged portfolios that drain budget. We serve technology companies and start-ups who don’t accept that lag or risk. Instead, we partner with you to provide legal services built for speed, precision, and value.

Whether you’re navigating patent filings, trademark registrations, licensing agreements, or enforcement actions, we craft legal strategy around your business roadmap—so your IP works with your growth instead of lagging behind it.

How Our Legal Services Work With Your Business

Selecting the right mark matters—and strength often translates into easier registration and stronger protection. According to the USPTO, the strongest marks are fanciful, arbitrary or suggestive—not simply descriptive of the goods or services.

Examples:

Discovery & Alignment: We start by learning about your invention, your business goals, your industry dynamics, and what success looks like for you.
Strategic Legal Planning: We map the legal services you need—not just one filing or application, but a roadmap that may span patents, trademarks, licensing, enforcement, and portfolio management.
Execution & Communication: We provide clear, jargon-free explanations, transparent pricing, and regular updates. You’ll always know where your matters stand and why we’re taking each step.
Ongoing Support & Growth: Legal services don’t stop when a patent issues or a mark registers. We help you monitor, maintain, and refine your IP assets so they continue to match where your business is going.

FAQs

Frequently Asked Questions

Find answers to common questions about patent filing & legal services.

Do I need a lawyer for patent filing or trademark registration?

While non-lawyers can perform some steps, the complexity of technology, legal strategy, enforcement risks and business implications make experienced legal counsel highly advisable.

How much do legal services cost and how are they billed?

It depends on scope, complexity and stage. At Protectors of Tech we provide clear quotes and flat-fee options in many cases—so you know what to expect before work starts.

Can legal services help monetize my IP?

Absolutely. Beyond creating rights, legal services help you structure licensing deals, joint ventures, sales, and partnerships—turning IP into income and business value.

What happens after a patent is issued or trademark registered?

Maintenance, monitoring, enforcement or defence become key. You must pay renewal fees, watch for infringers, and align your assets with your evolving business. We provide ongoing legal services for that phase too.

What is a patent?

In the U.S., a patent is a property right granted by the U.S. Government to an inventor "to exclude others from making, using, offering for sale, or selling the invention" for a limited time in exchange for public disclosure of the invention.

What types of patents do you handle?

We handle both utility patents and design patents. Our attorneys have expertise in various technical fields including software, electronics, data storage, AI, semiconductor devices, and more.

How long does it take to prepare and file my patent application?

Preparing and filing your patent application typically takes 3-6 weeks from our initial invention disclosure session. The variance depends on the complexity of the invention, and the results of a prior art search.

What is the difference between a provisional and non-provisional patent application?

A provisional patent application establishes a priority date and gives you 'patent pending' status for up to 12 months, but a provisional patent application is not examined and must be "converted" to a non-provisional within a year or it goes abandoned. A non-provisional application is a formal patent application that is examined by the USPTO and thus can result in an issued patent.

How much does it cost to obtain a patent?

The cost of obtaining a patent can depend on the complexity of the invention, the type of patent sought, and other factors. We provide upfront, transparent, flat fee pricing so you know exactly what you will pay before the work starts. In fact, just put "Patent Fees" in the contact us form, and we will send you our fees.

What can and cannot be patented?

What can be patented?

Utility patents are provided for a new, nonobvious and useful:

- Process

- Machine

- Article of manufacture

- Composition of matter

- Improvement of any of the above

Design patents are provided for the ornamental design of an article of manufacture.

Plant patents are provided for asexually reproduced plant varieties.

What cannot be patented:

- Laws of nature

- Physical phenomena

- Abstract ideas

- Literary, musical, and artistic works (these can be Copyright protected)

How long does it take to get a patent?

While the exact time to receive a notice of allowance varies, on average it takes between 20 to 30 months for a new non-provisional patent application. There are different ways to expedite this process and we will go over those with you to see if it would make sense for you to pursue an expedited process.
