Utility Patent Pricing - Complete Utility Patent Services

LegalZoom's technology and the affiliated patent firm's experience make it possible to offer complete patent services for a fraction of the typical cost.

Step 1)

Obtain Your Professional Patent Drawings and Attorney Consultation — $699

LegalZoom will connect you with an experienced patent professional who will help review and refine your invention information. You will also receive technical drawings for your invention, answers to your legal questions, and a complete patent assessment.

Services in the first step include:

Expert patent consultation and review by a registered patent attorney or agent
Top-quality patent drawings prepared by a professional patent illustrator (up to four pages)
Comprehensive search of prior patents with select attorney review (optional for $399)

No-Risk Advantage: If you decide not to pursue a patent after receiving your attorney assessment, there is no obligation to purchase the Patent Filing Package in the second step.

Step 2)

Prepare and File Your Utility Patent Application — $2800
(includes government filing fees)

Work directly with an experienced patent professional to file your patent with the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO). To expedite the process, they'll use the information gathered from LegalZoom's online questionnaire in preparing your patent application, saving you time and money.

Services in the second step include:

Expert preparation and drafting of a non-provisional Utility Patent Application, including 10 claims (up to three independent claims) and five pages of specifications
Preparation of Information Disclosure Statement
Electronic filing of your utility patent application with the USPTO and payment of initial filing fees
