Innovative Design With A Patent
A design patent can play a critical role in protecting your portfolio of products. With a design patent and other protections, you can ensure that no other source can utilize the unique appearance of your innovations.
WHAT MAKES A DESIGN PATENT SPECIAL
There may be several ways to solve a problem, but your design makes your solution unique. Visual appearance and aesthetics can play a vital role in how people perceive and experience your invention.
A design patent only applies to the ornamental aspects of an idea. The patent can protect the appearance of a device, a font, a user interface, fashion, labeling and more. In a design patent, you may specify features such as colors, materials and artistic form.
We can advise you regarding patentability, the design patent application process and other protective options. As a firm focused on intellectual property protection, we have efficient resources and in-depth knowledge across several major industries.
