Patents

Wood Phillips attorneys have been responsible for the issuance of tens of thousands of patents. We draft U S and foreign patent applications and participate in all areas of patent prosecution, including activities involving the Board of Patent Appeals and Interferences. We help clients assess the potentially patentable subject matter and choose the best ways to protect technology from a business perspective. In addition, we provide legal opinions about patentability, (non)infringement, and validity/invalidity. And as relevant new laws emerge, the firm provides clients with a steady flow of current information and counseling.
