Patents

Companies and individuals can improve the value of their technology developments through the creation and maintenance of a robust patent portfolio. Patents can be used to exclude competitors, support higher profit margins and generate licensing revenue. Patents can further aid in the procurement of external funding, especially for start-ups.

To effectively achieve these business goals, your intellectual property counsel needs the qualifications, background and experience to understand and appreciate your technology. Our patent attorneys and agents are licensed by the United States Patent and Trademark Office. They have educational backgrounds in such fields as electrical, mechanical and chemical engineering, computer science and physics. Many have hands-on industrial or academic experience in addition to their technical degrees. At LJP, we have the qualifications, background and experience necessary to provide effective legal counsel to inventors and intellectual property owners.

Our patent practice includes:

  • Preparation and procurement of patents in and outside the U.S.
  • Patentability analysis and opinions
  • Patent infringement analysis and opinions
  • Patent validity analysis and opinions

We represent clients across a wide range of industries and technologies, including telecommunications; semiconductor design, materials and fabrication; electronics; computer hardware and software; imaging device hardware and firmware; networking systems and software; chemical compositions and processing; mechanical and electro-mechanical devices; and medical devices.

At LJP, we will work closely with you to evaluate your technology and business goals. We will assist in the development of sound patent strategies and work with you to establish internal programs to foster identification of intellectual property at an early stage. LJP will then assist in procuring patents on those innovations, and in those parts of the world, in support of your business goals.
