Affordable Patent and Intellectual Property Services

It is easy to understand how typical costs for obtaining patent protection can scare businesses and individual inventors away. In February 2008, Alan Kasper, the First Vice-President of the American Intellecual Property Law Association (AIPLA), testified in a statement to Congress as to typical patent filing costs in the United States. The numbers were based on a 2007 AIPLA survey and include the following: average cost of preparing and filing complex electrical or computer cases: $13,684; complex biotech or chemical cases: $15,398; complex mechanical cases: $11,482; cases of minimal complexity with 10 pages and 10 claims: $8,548.

Given these findings, it's no wonder that many corporations, universities, and individual inventors have had to significantly reduce their IP budgets during these tough economic times.
