PATENTS
PATENT APPLICATION
PREPARATION
KramerAmado attorneys are experienced in drafting and prosecuting applications within widely varying areas including the biochemical, mechanical, and electrical fields. We employ a variety of drafting strategies to properly claim inventions as patentable subject matter under U.S. law while enabling variation in equivalent foreign patent applications according to foreign law.
We have experience drafting and prosecuting applications relating to many diverse technologies including:
PATENT PROSECUTION
KramerAmado believes effective patent prosecution begins with a thorough understanding of a client’s new technology as well as the business objectives related to that new technology. Our team works with inventors to pursue patent coverage that is not only technically accurate, but also tailored to the unique needs of varying IP strategies according to its clients’ business objectives.
Further, by maintaining continued communication with clients, we adapt IP strategies on a case-by-case basis or in response to changing business requirements.
In addition to protection in the U.S., KramerAmado analyzes our clients’ business objectives and strategies to identify the ideal foreign countries for seeking expanded geographic patent coverage. From there we coordinate with a broad network of foreign associates to manage prosecution of international and foreign patent applications.
Our office is located next to the USPTO. This close proximity enables our attorneys to regularly conduct in-person interviews with USPTO Examiners during prosecution. Establishing a rapport with the Examiner tends to lead to a shorter and more productive prosecution. In many cases, this process allows KramerAmado to obtain the most comprehensive patent coverage available.
PATENT RESEARCH
KramerAmado addresses the needs of a wide range of clientele, from individual inventors and start-up companies to Fortune 500 corporations and other intellectual property law firms around the world.
Areas of expertise include patentability, novelty, and prior art searches, infringement, clearance, validity and state-of-the-art searches.
POST GRANT REVIEW/ REEXAMINATIONS
Post-Grant Review allows our clients to directly challenge unpatentable patent claims prior to costly patent litigation. KramerAmado believes that its expertise in patent research, prosecution and opinion preparation provides the tools necessary to promote its clients’ best interests.
Ex Parte Reexamination and Inter Partes Review are available after the expiration of the Post-Grant Review deadline.
