Below is some info you may find helpful. This information is general in nature and is not intended to give you an actual estimate. I can provide a better estimate regarding your invention if you disclose it to me.

About Me

I am a licensed Ohio Attorney, licensed patent attorney, and licensed professional engineer in Ohio.

 
Confidentiality

Consulting with me for legal advice has certain built in mechanisms to protect your interests. The attorney client privilege applies. In addition, I am bound by legal and ethical standards imposed upon me by the state of Ohio and the United States Patent and Trademark Office.

 
Fees

I generally provide a free telephone consultation. The purpose of the consultation is to determine if I can assist you and if so on what terms. I will not give you legal advice regarding the merits of your case or the patentability of your invention unless you pay me to perform the task.

My hourly rates vary according to the person performing the work and the nature of the task. I evaluate each situation on a case by case basis. Most tasks require advance retainers. I set the amount of the retainer according to the task.
