Physical Sciences

For decades, Rutan & Tucker’s attorneys and patent agents have worked tirelessly to protect and secure intellectual property (IP) rights for technological innovations in the physical sciences.  To better assist our clients based in the United States and abroad, many of our professionals have scientific degrees to allow us to better understand the physical science in which our clients’ technological innovations are rooted.  Our services include counsel for strategically developing IP along market-driven timelines, which includes identifying and prioritizing patentable inventions, preparing patent applications, and planning for and executing domestic and international patent prosecution. We also provide intellectual property due diligence and opinions in support of IP development, as well as in view of existing technologies.
