“If you fail to plan, you are planning to fail.”

At the Law Office of Raul D. Martinez, we believe that all of your Intellectual Property must fit within your overall business and financial goals. Although each piece of your Intellectual Property is a piece of the puzzle, the pieces must make sense when viewed as a whole. Listed below are just some of the individual pieces we can craft to complement your overall goals.

Domestic and Foreign Patent Prosecution

Technical innovations are the foundation of many of our clients’ business success.  To that end, we will work with you to select which of your inventions support your current and future business goals and strategies.  We will then help you procure patent coverage domestically and, if appropriate, in foreign countries where you desire protection.

Patentability Opinions

In some cases, our clients desire an in-depth analysis regarding the current state of the art to aid them in deciding whether to pursue patent protection for a particular invention.  In these instances, we can provide our opinion of what range of coverage you may obtain for your invention, based on the results of a comprehensive patentability search. 

Agreement
Infringement Opinions

Whether you are facing a patent infringement lawsuit or you need to enforce your own patent, we can help you analyze the strength of claims against you or the strength of claims you may assert against a competitor.  Armed with this information, we can help you determine the appropriate course of action.
