Buffalo NY Patent Attorney
How long does the patent process take?

From filing to grant, the patent process typically takes 18-24 months. Various factors can affect this timeline, including the complexity of your invention and USPTO response times.

A provisional patent provides 12 months of protection while you develop your invention. A non-provisional patent is the formal application that can result in a granted patent.

An invention must be novel, non-obvious, and useful to be patentable. We conduct thorough patent searches to assess patentability before filing.

Patent costs vary based on complexity. During your free consultation, we’ll review your invention and provide a clear cost breakdown including filing fees and legal services.

Yes, you can sell or market your invention while the patent is pending, but it’s crucial to have proper confidentiality agreements in place.
