Technology companies that manage their patents in a slapdash fashion, without attention to long-range plans, may find it more difficult to grow their businesses in the desired direction. They may also find that they have obtained patents that are of little value to their businesses, yet lack patents on their core technologies.

With strategic planning assistance from an experienced computer technology lawyer, you can rest assured that your intellectual property plan parallels and reinforces your greater plan for business growth and success.

Our Patent Roadmaps are customized plans for patent protection based on your technology and goals, developed individually by attorney Robert Plotkin, an MIT-educated computer scientist and computer patent expert.

A Patent Roadmap is a Strategic Plan for Intellectual Property Protection

A Patent Roadmap lays out, clearly and concisely, the steps that need to be taken to protect your technology and business in the long term. We work side-by-side by you to develop the Patent Roadmap, typically by:

  • Meeting with you to discuss your technology, your business plan, and any of your existing intellectual property. We review your technology specifications and business plans and brainstorm with you interactively about the future of your business and the available legal options.
  • Drafting a Patent Roadmap document, which spells out the steps to take over time to protect your current technology and any future technology that is under development. Examples of such steps include performing patentability investigations for your inventions and preparing and prosecuting patent applications for you.
  • Meeting with you again after you review the roadmap, taking the time to answer your questions, receive your feedback and make additions or subtractions as necessary so that the Roadmap actively supports your business goals.

Once the Patent Roadmap is complete, we stand ready to begin executing the steps in the Roadmap for you so that you can begin to secure patent protection for your technology and defend yourself against the patents of your competitors.

More Information on Patent Roadmaps

As with many of our other services, we are glad to prepare a Patent Roadmap for a flat fee, so that you can budget immediately for the effort required to develop a strategic patent protection plan for your company.

The information gleaned from such a Roadmap can be invaluable — it may uncover unrealized opportunities or dangerous gaps in your patent portfolio that had gone unrecognized. If you have questions about patent roadmaps or our other services, we encourage you to contact our office to schedule an appointment.

We provide flexible in-person and telephone appointment times to accommodate our clients' busy schedules.

Each new client receives a complimentary 30-minute consultation.
