Patent Attorney and Founder
“What’s the average cost of having a patent attorney file your patent and do a search?” Great question. Average cost… I actually haven’t done a market survey, I’ll just tell you some of our fees. Okay, so for a patentability search with a legal opinion and patent application all bundled, you’re looking at about $10,000. Sometimes for simpler inventions, it can be a little less, for more complicated inventions, it might be a bit more. That’s to get patent pending. The search cannot be skipped, especially if you’re inventing in an area that you’re familiar with or unfamiliar with. You need to know what else already exists before you leap and spend that $5,000-$10,000 more to get patent pending.
