One of the firm’s most distinct features is its commitment to transparent, flat-fee billing. Clients know exactly what a project will cost upfront, eliminating the fear of surprise legal bills. Furthermore, J.D. Houvener and his team are prolific educators, publishing books like Bold Ideas: The Inventor’s Guide to Patents and hosting weekly live Q&A sessions to demystify the patent process. They believe that an educated client is an empowered client.
