Protecting the universe of chemical innovations through patents demands more than the ability to describe a formula or reaction. Broad knowledge of the field is essential, including an understanding of the underlying processes, reactions, interactions, materials and compositions. Our Chemical Patent attorneys not only have the legal expertise and experience resulting from years of practice in this specialized field, we also have the substantive and scientific background. Our attorneys have degrees in chemistry, chemical engineering, pharmacology and related subjects and most have used their technical degrees in industry prior to entering the patent law field. Others have gained relevant experience working for government agencies such as the U.S. Patent Office and the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency. So, we are particularly expert in dealing with environmental control issues and regulatory matters.

We bring experience in science and industry together in our commitment to provide the best protection available and prepare patent claims that can withstand unforeseen future challenges to validity or enforceability. Our experience includes analyzing patents, providing opinions on patentability, validity and infringement, preparing patent applications and prosecuting patents through to issuance. Our expertise also extends to interferences and appeal proceedings in the event that protectible rights are disputed.
