LegalZoom Design Patents

Design Patents Overview

Protect your design from cheap imitations. Unlike utility patents, design patents protect the unique appearance of a manufactured item. Examples include an ornamental face plate for a watch or an original design for an office chair.

A design patent grants you the exclusive right to manufacture or sell your design. You also enjoy U.S. Customs protection against imported products that infringe on your patent. LegalZoom can help you file a Design Patent in 3 easy steps.
Complete our simple online questionnaire.
A registered patent agent will review your application, provide suggestions and electronically file it with the US Patent Office.
You receive an official letter of approval by mail.
