We are happy to offer our clients
a free initial consultation with a registered patent attorney,
and offer additional free advice when additional "initial stage" questions
crop up. This is in our interest as well as that of our clients:
a large percentage of our business comes from people who want
to carefully consider their situation before retaining a
patent attorney and beginning the process of applying for
patent, trademark, or copyright protection.
Ethical rules act to prevent any patent attorney
from divulging confidential client materials, needless to say,
this includes inventions, business plans
and unpublished works. Thus, while you should normally consider your
inventions and untested trademarks to be private
until protection is applied for, asking questions of a
patent attorney or patent agent is not a risk.
If you would like to arrange a free initial consultation, or
merely would like to ask a question, feel free to call toll free 877-227-2371 (877-BARBER1) or 303-278-9973. E-mailing us with your name, telephone number,
and a general statement of your question is another possibility, albeit slower at our end, less secure in the middle,
and not permitting much in the way of give and take of ideas. You may also feel free to fax us at 303-278-9977. For our international clients, the country code of the United States is “1”.
Patent, trademark and copyright protection can be a valuable asset
to those who act to protect their ideas.
