Whether you're developing new technology, launching a breakthrough product, or strengthening your IP portfolio, securing patent rights is a critical part of your business strategy.
Gutwein Law helps inventors, startups, research institutions, and established companies navigate the complex patent process – from concept to commercialization. With technical insight and deep legal experience, we position your innovations for protection, enforcement, and long-term value.
We work with clients to align their patent strategy with business objectives to identify what’s worth protecting, where protection is needed, and how it fits into broader IP or business goals.
Before you file, we conduct thorough prior art searches and patentability analyses. We also provide non-infringement opinions to reduce legal risk and guide product development.
We draft, file, and prosecute utility and design patent applications with the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) and coordinate filings worldwide through the Patent Cooperation Treaty (PCT) and foreign counsel networks.
Our attorneys have deep experience working with patent examiners to navigate objections, amend claims, and secure the strongest protection possible, all while staying aligned with your commercial goals.
We negotiate and draft licensing agreements, joint development arrangements, and IP assignments that maximize the value of your patented technologies.
Should enforcement or defense become necessary, we work with our litigation team to evaluate infringement, manage risks, and protect your competitive advantage in court or through licensing resolution.
