Expert Patent Searching and Prosecution

The foundation of any successful patent application is a thorough and highly accurate prior art search. Before investing significant capital into the expensive patent prosecution process, you must know if your invention is truly novel and non-obvious. Our firm conducts exhaustive patentability searches, analyzing existing patents and technical literature to provide you with an honest, realistic assessment of your chances of success. If we determine that your invention is patentable, we meticulously draft robust utility or design patent applications tailored to withstand intense scrutiny from the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO). Dean A. Craine possesses a diverse technical background, allowing our firm to skillfully handle complex inventions across a wide array of industries, including mechanical engineering, electrical devices, sophisticated software applications, and consumer goods. We expertly navigate the often-frustrating back-and-forth negotiations with patent examiners, filing strategic amendments and highly persuasive legal arguments to overcome rejections. If you want to secure a patent that actually provides a meaningful competitive advantage in the marketplace, you need to book an attorney who knows how to draft broad, legally impenetrable claims. We handle every single detail of the prosecution process, allowing you to focus your valuable time and energy on developing and marketing your product. 🔬

Robust Trademark and Copyright Protection

Your company name, distinctive logos, and creative product names are exactly what sets you apart from your competitors in a crowded marketplace. At Dean A. Craine, P.S., we offer comprehensive trademark services to ensure your brand assets are legally yours and yours alone.
