My general rate is $120/hour for work during 9:00-5:00 Monday - Friday (Eastern time). Free initial 15-minute phone consultation. Estimated charges are shown below for an average invention. I will provide a set fee in writing based on the complexity of the invention. When comparing my prices to those of other agents and attorneys, please insure that all of the items listed below are included in the comparison price (including the drawings). Patent Office fees change periodically, sometimes with short notice. You normally apply for just one type of patent, not all three. If I prepare a provisional patent application for you, I can prepare a utility patent application within a year at a greatly reduced fee. Other services can be provided for additional fees, if necessary, such as appeal, recording of assignments, etc. Note that the number of required arguments is unpredictable, depending on the Examiner and the prior art found by the Examiner. Foreign patenting fees are not shown here.
