Our experienced California patent attorneys & lawyers represent individuals and businesses throughout the state of California, United States, and world with domestic and foreign patent application and prosecution matters. They have extensive experience handling patent applications from nearly every sector of technology, including biotechnology, computer hardware and software, communication networks, internet systems and methods, automotive, medical equipment, construction technology, consumer electronics, and clean technology research and development.

Our California patent lawyers are of the most highly experienced and trained in the patent law industry, requiring a scientific background, and passing a second level of testing known as the Patent Bar Examination. Thousands of patents are submitted to the patent office every day and a patent committee reviews each patent for its validity. The patent application process requires that correctly drafted documentation present a clear case for the novelty of the invention, which is best made by using a California patent attorney with a higher education background and knowledge of your industry.

The California patent attorneys on UpCounsel can help you file a provisional patent, which lasts for 1-year and allows you to immediately begin using/manufacturing your invention with the confidence that your idea is protected. These types of patents are great if you think your idea will change a lot over the next year before you file a (non-provisional) patent. These types of patents are easier to obtain and are less expensive but you should have a patent lawyer in California review your provisional patent application to insure that you are meeting your objectives when you file your patent.

What Our Customers Have to Say

"UpCounsel gives me access to big-firm lawyers minus the big-firm price tag. I work with several attorneys on the platform and there are never surprises...I always receive quality legal work at competitive rates that larger firms simply cannot match."

Scott Woods
SVP & General Counsel

"Every startup needs to know about UpCounsel. We found great attorneys at great prices and were able to focus our resources on improving our business instead of paying legal bills."

Sean Conway
Co-founder & CEO

"Before UpCounsel it was hard for us to find the right lawyer with the right expertise for our business. UpCounsel solves those problems by being more affordable and helping us find the right lawyer in no time."

File Utility Patent

Michael Antone

"Put simply, Mike was awesome. He was great about communicating with me and responding quickly. Furthermore, he did this as a way to work with me, not just for me. The experience of drafting and filing a non-provisional patent was very collaborative, with a lot of feedback freely flowing both ways to craft something of very high quality and satisfaction. He really put effort into understanding exactly what it was I was working on, what my vision was, and how to properly materialize and execute upon those things. All of this was especially impressive given the short period of time within which we had to work to meet the conversion deadline from the provisional, and Mike was great about making sure we kept on track. He was also very good about explaining the process, as well as all the procedures, requirements, pros/cons, strategies, and expectations involved, removing any uncertainties I had, educating me as much as possible. I would recommend Mike to anyone seeking legal services for their business. And while I can only personally vouch for his patent services, I'm sure he extends his work ethic, collaborativeness, and quality to whatever services he may offer."
