Call Now, I’m ListeningFrequently asked questions
Do I need to register a patent in California?
No. Patents are issued only by the USPTO, which is federal, not state-based. Your location in Los Angeles doesn’t change the filing process.
Do I need a patent search before filing?
It’s not required, but strongly recommended. A search helps you understand existing inventions and reduces the risk of filing something that won’t qualify.
What’s the difference between a provisional and non-provisional patent?
A provisional gives you a filing date but is not examined. A non-provisional is the full application reviewed by the USPTO that can lead to an issued patent.
How long does it take to get a patent?
Most utility patents take 1.5 to 3 years from filing to final decision, depending on the technology and USPTO backlog.
Can I talk about my invention before filing?
You can, but it’s risky. The U.S. has a one-year grace period, but public disclosure can still limit protection and affect foreign rights.

Brian W.
Legal work for a business sale
“ I was selling my business and used Elizabeth as my attorney to complete the transaction. Elizabeth was 100% professional and even answered texts on the weekend. I am not the easiest guy to do business with, as I expect people to go above and beyond like I feel I do myself. This attitude that I have is not always appreciated? Elizabeth not only put up with my attitude, she was extremely pleasant to work with. Brian W.
