No, we complement your existing patent counsel. We handle the administrative aspects of national-phase filing, coordination, and translation, while your attorney can focus on the strategic and technical aspects of your patents.

Most jurisdictions have a 30-month deadline from the priority date, but some notable exceptions with 31-month deadlines include the European Patent Office (EPO), Australia (AU), South Korea (KR), and several others. We track all deadline variations to ensure timely filing.

Yes, we offer an optional flat annual fee service to manage your patent annuities. This service includes proactive reminders, consolidated payment processing, and detailed reporting on your portfolio status.

We primarily need your PCT application number and the list of countries where you want to file. With this information, we can provide an accurate, itemized quote within 24 hours.

We work with specialized patent translators for all required languages. Unlike traditional firms that often apply markups to translation costs, we pass our wholesale rates directly to you, resulting in significant savings.

Our primary focus is on national-phase entry after the PCT application. However, we have partners who can assist with the initial PCT filing if needed, and we're happy to coordinate this process for you.
