Legal Services Offered by Our On-Demand Glen Burnie Patent Attorneys
Our experienced Glen Burnie patent attorneys & lawyers represent individuals and businesses throughout the world with domestic and foreign patent preparation and prosecution matters. They have extensive experience handling 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 patent attorneys are of the most highly trained in the 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 process requires that correctly drafted documentation present a clear case for the novelty of the invention, which is best made by a patent attorney with a higher education background in your industry.
Our Glen Burnie patent attorneys & lawyers 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 patents are easier to obtain and are less expensive but you should have a patent lawyer review your provisional patent application to insure that you are meeting your objectives when you file your patent.

Patent Consultation
"Attorney Douglas is an outstanding patent attorney! He is well-versed in the nuances of patent law and ensured that my application was both robust and strategically sound. He provided clear, honest, and timely communication and took the time to explain complicated legal concepts to help me understand my options and best path forward. He also understood my goals, and managed costs which were very reasonable for the heavy lift he performed to complete my application without blindsiding me with hidden costs. Attorney Douglas is super smart, down to earth, easy to talk to, VERY responsive, timely, and detailed-oriented. Most importantly, I was going through a challenging time and he expressed care and transformed the daunting patent process into a clear, manageable journey. I cannot express enough how much I appreciate the exceptional service I received from Attorney Douglas and HIGHLY recommend him! A++++++++++++++++++"
