Tucson Patent Lawyer Services

Patent services from a Bold Patents Tucson patent lawyer fall into three general areas:

Patentability: An inventor must establish that the invention is novel and non-obvious to obtain a patent. A Tucson patent law firm determines patentability by conducting a patent search and analyzing the invention in view of the prior art. An invention is novel when it includes a feature not shown in the prior art. An invention is non-obvious when it is more than an obvious variation on, or combination of, prior art references.

Patent drafting and prosecution: A Tucson US patent lawyer can use the patentability analysis to focus the patent application on the invention’s novel features. The patent application is filed with the US Patent Office and the patent lawyer guides the patent application through the process to issuance as a patent.

Patent infringement: The U.S. Patent Act defines patent infringement as the unauthorized manufacture, use, sale, or importation of the patented invention. Whether a client is an accused infringer or a patent owner, a patent attorney can assess the strength of a patent infringement claim.

The Patent Process

Inventors can get lost in the patent process. Our Tucson patent law firm guides clients through the patent process, providing comprehensive patent law services including:

Before filing the patent: We help clients evaluate whether filing and obtaining patents will meet their financial expectations. A Tucson US patent attorney can help businesses avoid a situation where an invention is not eligible for a patent or is unlikely to produce a return on investment when patented. Conversely, if a business case for patenting exists, a patent lawyer can help the client set its expectations for the scope of rights that might be obtained by evaluating an invention’s patentability and market readiness.

Filing the patent: After drafting and filing a patent application, the U.S. Patent Office assigns the patent application to a patent examiner. The examiner conducts a patent search so the examiner can render a decision on the invention’s patentability. Most patent applications receive at least one office action rejecting or objecting to the application. After receiving an office action, a client works with a patent lawyer to respond to the office action with amendments and arguments. Although it may seem “final,” a patent attorney can work with the client to continue the pursuit of a patent even after receiving a final rejection.

After patent issuance: Licensing and enforcement of patents are critical tools to monetizing US patents. A Tucson US patent attorney can help a client license a patent by developing licensing terms, negotiating licenses, and drafting licensing agreements. If a competitor exploits the invention without first obtaining the patent owner’s permission, a Tucson patent attorney can investigate and analyze a potential infringement claim.

Tucson Trademark Lawyer Services

A Tucson trademark lawyer helps businesses protect their brands. Bold Patents can help companies obtain and protect rights in the distinctive identifiers used on their products and services, including names, slogans, logos, product configuration, and packaging. This prevents competitors from using confusingly similar marks in the marketplace that potentially mislead consumers.

Our Tucson trademark law firm provides comprehensive trademark services including:

Protectability: A Tucson US trademark attorney can register a business’s marks but, more importantly, can help a client strategically select and use its marks in a way that cultivates stronger and more protectable trademark rights.

Acquisition: Common law trademark rights are limited rights that arise through use of a mark. A federal or state registration filed by a Tucson US trademark lawyer vastly expands on those rights. A Tucson trademark attorney from Bold Patents can assist clients by assessing their trademark uses and their need for trademark registrations. When businesses provide services or products overseas, a Tucson US trademark attorney can coordinate foreign trademark applications for them.

Infringement: A competitor infringes trademarks or service marks when it uses a mark that is likely to cause confusion with the trademark owner’s mark. Bold Patents, a Tucson trademark law firm, can assess the strength of a trademark infringement claim whether the client has been accused of infringement or owns a trademark.
