patents straight
is how and why a patent agent in solo practice has
obtained >50 quality patents with minimum pending.
By: working for the applicant and with the U.S. Patent Office;
quoting all work: rather than billing hours; personally performing
all work including patent searches enabling expediting examination;
quality patents that stand up on their own in court are quickly obtained.
Quality Patents are quickly gained by:
(a)  (optionally) filing a Provisional Application first;
(b) conducting a search before preparing the full Application;
(c) filing with a petition requesting Accelerated Examination.
Provisional Applications:
(a) secure foreign filing rights under the Paris Convention;
(b) obtain Patent Pending status equal to a full Application filing;
(c) provide an early filing date for a subsequent full Application.
Patent Searches
(a) assist in deciding whether a full Application is worthwhile or not;
(b) enable filing with a petition requesting Accelerated Examination;
(c)  facilitate Application preparation resulting in a quality patent.
Expedited Examination
(a) avoids examination backlogs of three years or more;
(b) replaces adversarial prosecution with an interview for:
(c) immediate Allowance of the Application, if filed in full and
proper condition for same resulting in a quality patent, quickly.
One third advance payment for patent searches being payment
in full for innovations disclosed by the prior art illustrates best
the how and why patents straight operates to honest advantage.

Innovations already known to the prior art are quickly found by
an experienced searcher while novel inventions are proved out
in a full search comprehensive of all the pertinent prior art.
Time, in short, is not wasted on work done by the hour and the
focus is on obtaining quality patents quickly with a full search first
so the novelty of the invention can be proved to the U.S. Patent Office.

patents straight is hence seen to be the philosophy, discipline, and
the service offered by patents pending: the solo practice since 1992
of this US Patent Agent.  Quality patents quickly result as evidenced
by the 50+ patents seen on the Appendix-US Patents page averaging
only nineteen months from filing of the Application to Patent Issue.
The searches minimized prosecution and resulted in US Patents that
stand on their own as there is no 'fodder' in the prosecution that can
be seized upon in invalidity infringement defense.  Assumption of
validity can be safely asserted because everything was done straight:
with full integrity and honesty; by the same patent agent.
