What a Boston Patent Attorney Does to Protect Your Ideas

A patent attorney helps turn an invention into enforceable rights. That includes choosing the right filing strategy, drafting the application, and guiding it through the USPTO review process.


Common problems we help Boston clients avoid include:


  • Sharing ideas publicly before filing


  • Claims written too narrowly, making design-arounds easy


  • Inventorship or ownership issues between co-founders or collaborators


  • Filing too late, after momentum has already started


Clear guidance early helps protect both the invention and your path to market.

From First Idea to

Issued Patent

Patent protection works best when it follows a clear process. We help clients understand what to file, when to file, and why each step matters.


Our work typically includes:


  • Early strategy review of what’s new and worth protecting


  • Drafting and filing U.S. patent applications


  • Responding to USPTO Office Actions on schedule



  • Building claims that align with how the invention will be sold, licensed, or defended


Strong planning upfront helps avoid delays and costly revisions later.

Boston Innovators We Often Work With and Their Risks

Boston’s innovation ecosystem creates opportunity and exposure at the same time.



We often work with clients facing these challenges:


  • Academic teams balancing publication deadlines with patent timing


  • Startups preparing for demo days, accelerators, or investor pitches


  • Biotech and life sciences companies sharing data too early


  • Businesses working with vendors or overseas manufacturers


  • Product launches that lock in designs before protection is secured


Early IP planning helps you protect first, then share with more control.
