WHO WE ARE
John F. Vodopia PC is an intellectual property (IP) law firm established in 2009. We specialize in patents, trademarks, and related matters. Our clients include corporations, start-ups and sole proprietorships in need of our patent, trademark, licensing and litigation services, as well as other attorney’s whose clients have IP-related issues.
WHAT WE DO
John F Vodopia PC provides a broad array of IP-related services. We prepare and prosecute of patents and trademarks before the US Patent Office and the US Trademark Office. Additionally, we litigate patents and trademarks in the federal district courts, the patent trial & appeal board (PTAB), such as inter partes reviews and the trademark trial & appeal board (TTAB), such as trademark opposition/cancellation proceedings.
Our specialty is helping small inventors and start-ups get to the patent office FIRST, by working with the inventors to prepare and file a US provisional Patent application. We charge $1275 to “evolve” your inventive disclosure into a US provisional patent application, and file the written text and drawings as the application, including paying the provisional application filing fee. We provide up to 4 hours of attorney time to realize the application for filing. You will receive the provisional application serial number the day we file electronically, and have one year from the filing date to turn the provisional application into a non-provisional utility application, during which you can seek funding from venture capital, angel investors or even the US government by way of grants (e.g., SBIR). Call anytime to discuss this tried and true method of securing preotection for your valuable assets.
“We have worked with John F. Vodopia PC for the past 5 years.
