Patents
The first inventor to file gets the patent. Even if you invented it first.
A U.S. patent lets you stop others from making, using, or selling what your claims cover. Since 2013 it goes to the first inventor to file, not the first to invent, and your own public disclosure starts a one-year clock to get an application in. So timing matters as much as the prototyping.
Two kinds of patents, two kinds of applications
How we work
John Gugliotta has prosecuted patents since 1993 across chemical, pharmaceutical, mechanical, medical, electronic, and business-method subject matter. He’s a chemical engineer by training, which means the guy writing your claims understands the thing he’s describing.
Patent work is priced flat wherever it can be. After an initial consultation, you get a written quote covering the drafting, the drawings, and the filing. USPTO fees are itemized separately. If the invention isn’t a good candidate for a patent, we’ll tell you that too, and what to do instead.
