Our Distinctive Qualities and Services

• Knowledge through experience
  Thorough understanding of complex technologies often requires real world, hands-on experience. Our intellectual property and patent attorneys not only possess advanced technical, medical, and engineering degrees, but a majority of them have actually worked in corporate America, designing, developing and using many of the technologies their clients draw upon when developing their new ideas. This is largely why our intellectual property law and trademark attorneys consistently file cases with extremely persuasive arguments for granting their clients the rights to new intellectual property.

• Progressive strategic counsel
  The digital age of the 21st century demands continuous monitoring of changes affecting intellectual property protection. At Schmeiser, Olsen & Watts, our patent lawyers are committed to staying on top of the latest technical advances and regulatory changes occurring in the intellectual property law landscape. This commitment, combined with a desire to help their clients excel, enables our trademark attorneys to perceive potential problems before they emerge, creating solutions that will curtail patent examiners' issues and objections. Additionally, they strive to keep their clients aware of new opportunities to increase the economic potential of their existing intellectual property holdings.
  
  
• Client oriented focus
  Preparation, filing, and prosecution of patents and trademarks are all done with an eye towards servicing our clients' objectives. Before we move on an action, we seek to understand your short and long-range goals to determine if the request is warranted and in your best interest. Our goal is to help our clients effectively manage the full range of their intellectual property portfolios.
  
  
• Direct contact and insight
  Experience has proven that frequent contact with the United States Patent and Trademark Office is invaluable. Members of our intellectual property law firm frequently consult with the United States Patent Office officials in Washington, D.C. This allows the trademark and patent attorneys to overcome limitations imposed by written text, explore the issues fully and at length, and convincingly express their arguments. In addition to establishing close working relationships with the U.S. patent examiners, we are proud to point out that many of the firm members are former patent examiners. Their previous experience gives us invaluable insight into the innermost workings and polices of the United States Patent Office. This combination of attributes and personalized intellectual property services has created a unique competitive advantage for our clients seeking patent procurement and protection.
