The attorneys in our Mechanical practice have significant industrial experience, which enables them to quickly understand and protect client technologies. Our mechanical practice also is integrated with our other practices, particularly in the fields of biomedical devices, electromechanical devices, fiber optics, manufacturing control and mechanical design of telecommunications devices. Our attorneys also have significant experience in helping clients obtain foreign patents through our network of agents around the world.
In addition to obtaining patents, our attorneys have assisted clients in avoiding patent infringement by conducting state-of-the-art studies prior to the introduction of a product and helping our clients to “design around” patents held by others.
