The Law Offices of Steven G. Lisa, Ltd., provides expert advice on how to obtain and enforce patents. This process typically involves three steps:

1. Patent procurement;
2. Patent licensing; and if necessary
3. Patent litigation.

Patent Procurement

The patent procurement process requires counsel to work closely with the inventor to assess the invention, prepare the necessary specifications and drawings for filing with the Patent Office, and ultimately and most importantly, to properly define or "claim" the invention in words. This process requires patent counsel to have excellent technical, communication and writing skills, along with a detailed knowledge of the many procedures and rules required by the United States Patent Office.
