At Dymera IP, we have a natural curiosity to learn about new inventions. We bring our curiosity and strong technical skills to establish a deep understanding of your technology, potential alternatives, and future roadmaps. With that foundation, we create a strategy for patent claims and draft a high quality and fully enabled patent application document with appropriate description and figures. A complete patent application is both highly technical and highly creative, which is perhaps why we enjoy writing them so much.

We support all phases of patent application development, drafting, filing, and prosecution, including:

• Invention harvesting, disclosure review, and brainstorming

• Patentability searching and opinions

• High quality patent application drafting

• Preparation and filing of all documents with the US Patent & Trademark Office (USPTO)

• Patent Prosecution at the USPTO, including substantive amendments and arguments during examination

• Information disclosure statements, assignments, petitions, and other formal documents

• Appeals to the Patent Trial and Appeal Board

• Allowance reviews, grants, and certificates of correction

• Continuation and divisional practice

In addition to creating new patent portfolios, we are also highly efficient and effective at patent portfolio reviews, opinions, and assessments, including:

• Portfolio maintenance, mining, and pruning

• Clearance searching and analysis

• Competitive reviews and monitoring

• Infringement and invalidity analysis

• Landscape and prior art assessments

In writing patent applications, we translate very specific structures, interactions, processes, and steps into words with the right meaning and scope. This precision and clarity is also our approach to contract drafting, revision, and negotiation. Contracts work best when they capture the true intent of the parties and allocate contingent risk where it makes the most sense.

We are happy to provide clients with these services:

• Due diligence activities for IP transactions (acquisitions, divestitures, investments)

• Drafting, revising, and negotiating agreements including research and development agreements, joint development, clinical study, technology transfer, data rights, licensing, and others
