Patents

Looking to patent your invention? The patent lawyers at Simpson & Simpson can help.

Whether you've invented a better mousetrap or cloned a sheep, our patent attorneys are skilled and experienced in advising creative inventors, companies, and universities in how best to protect their valuable intellectual property.

The patenting process is very complex. Even the U.S. Supreme Court has commented that a patent application is probably the single most difficult legal document to draft. Whether you are an inventor tinkering in your basement or a corporate director of research and development, you probably have questions about the patenting process. To answer those questions, we have compiled a list of "Frequently Asked Questions" culled from thousands of consultations our patent attorneys have provided over the years.
