Patents

At Craig Wilson and Company we provide all facets of patenting of inventions related to your patent portfolio, including providing a virtual in-house patent operation to your business dealing with the creation, protection and enforcement phases in the patent process.

In the Creation Phase we help you farm ideas from your innovation projects into patent disclosures. This involves:

One

Providing documents for your employees to assign any inventions they make during their employment to your corporation

Two

Establishing an in-house invention disclosure process whereby all inventions related to your corporate innovation are identified and ranked qualitatively in importance to your business needs.

Three

Assisting your corporation in establishing an inventor incentive program to unearth more invention disclosures reducing the risk of quality inventions not being disclosed.

Four

Weeding out any of the ranked inventions that are not novel or inventive.


The creation processes is designed to enhance farming of innovation in your corporation while at the same time effectively screen out low priority invention disclosures.

In the Protection Phase we establish a cost effective patent filing and review strategy suited to your business. This may be a world wide filing strategy or a selective country strategy.

The Enforcement Phase involves the enforcement and licensing of your patent rights against infringers.

Due to our many years of corporate in-house experience, we offer services at what we consider to be on par with corporate in-house prices.
