Once a government patent is granted, the patent registration offers a patent owner a limited monopoly to restrict others from making, using, selling or offering for sale certain processes, apparatus, methods or compositions of matter. Typically, a U.S. Patent represents a company's most significant assets. This certainly rings true in today's competitive and globalized business climate – making international patent law (including foreign patents and PCT patent applications) a key focus for today's technology driven businesses.

Pricing & Approach
With the continued problems with the global economy the issue of patent cost is an understandable question. Often this leads people to attempt to patent it yourself – often causing an inventor to fail to patent an idea due to unfamiliarity with the complexities of American patent law. Don't let the cost to patent come between you and hiring a reputable South Florida patent firm. Our patent office provides a variety of packages and programs to assist clients of every size, budget and goal. Many programs include flat-fee rates for patent, copyright and trademark filings. In addition, Robert offers stepped payment programs to identify what aspects of your ideas are most important, while others can wait until secondary funding becomes available. This pricing is often identified after the initial free consultation provided by our Miami patent firm.
Our Florida IP Attorneys are here to serve your intellectual property and technology law needs – including regarding patent, trademark, trade secret, and copyright protection and enforcement matters.
