Top Patent Lawyers Near Me in Irvine Area

We are a group of patent professionals who have previously worked as engineers, scientists, and software developers. Our scientific and engineering background is key to understanding cutting edge technologies and creates distinctive benefits not found with a traditional law firm. From the beginning, our goal was to improve efficiency of the day-to-day operations of the firm by separating the creative process from the mundane. This efficiency enables lower overhead costs and greater value to our clients. Our highly customizable docketing system streamlines patent drafting and prosecution by automating routine docketing and reporting processes. This allows a smaller team of professionals to develop and manage large patent portfolios while maintaining low overhead. In fact, when some of the companies we have worked with have been acquired by big tech companies such as Google and Snap, they asked us to stay on and keep developing the patent portfolios they acquired.
