Patent

Overview

To help you identify, protect, and leverage the value of your intellectual property assets and strengthen your patent portfolio, we aim to understand your products, core technologies, and business needs. Instead of telling you what to do, we collaborate with and empower you to make the most effective business decisions. Your interests and goals guide our patent strategies. Faegre Drinker’s registered patent attorneys and other professionals have backgrounds in technology and scientific spaces from nearly every industry sector. We offer a full suite of patent services, including procurement, prosecution, maintenance of domestic and global portfolios, post-grant proceedings, patentability and white space analyses, diligence, valuation and transaction advice, pre-suit investigations and opinions, clearance, and design-around options. Serving clients domestically and internationally, we employ well-coordinated, consistent, and comprehensive global prosecution strategies that maximize patent protection and minimize costs.
