Our flat fee agreements for a non-provisional utility patent application start at $4,500. Our flat fee agreements for a provisional patent application start at $1,000. Our flat fee agreements for a design patent application start at $600 dollars. Formal drawings are charged at cost, which is currently $65 dollars per sheet.

We offer initial consultations at no charge. After we have discussed your particular needs we will be able to give you a fixed fee price or an estimate based upon an hourly fee agreement.
Patent litigation is typically performed on an hourly basis at a rate of $300 dollars per hour.
