The process of acquiring a patent is only half done after a good specification is drafted and the application is filed. Taking the patent specification to grant requires immense expertise, craftsmanship, and diligence. All actions during the patent prosecution phase, from drafting examination responses to dealing with examiners require special skill, experience in dealing with the patent office and an in-depth understanding of patent law and procedure. More often than not, despite the value of an invention, a patent grant or its scope depends on the experience and expertise of the patent attorney.
Our Patent prosecution team, manned with experienced and staunch professionals with expertise in the international playing field, has been helping clients efficiently handle patent applications during prosecution and secure patent grants. Supplemented by our proprietary portfolio management tool and dedicated support staff, our patent attorneys focus their energies on maximizing the scope of patent protection through strategic and highly effective prosecution strategies. Our insight into national, and international patent processes, and experience of acquiring several hundred patent grants across the world, enables us to provide unparalleled prosecution services to our clients.
