Our experienced California patent attorneys & lawyers represent individuals and businesses throughout the state of California, United States, and world with domestic and foreign patent application and prosecution matters. They have extensive experience handling patent applications from nearly every sector of technology, including biotechnology, computer hardware and software, communication networks, internet systems and methods, automotive, medical equipment, construction technology, consumer electronics, and clean technology research and development.

Our California patent lawyers are of the most highly experienced and trained in the patent law industry, requiring a scientific background, and passing a second level of testing known as the Patent Bar Examination. Thousands of patents are submitted to the patent office every day and a patent committee reviews each patent for its validity. The patent application process requires that correctly drafted documentation present a clear case for the novelty of the invention, which is best made by using a California patent attorney with a higher education background and knowledge of your industry.

The California patent attorneys on UpCounsel can help you file a provisional patent, which lasts for 1-year and allows you to immediately begin using/manufacturing your invention with the confidence that your idea is protected. These types of patents are great if you think your idea will change a lot over the next year before you file a (non-provisional) patent. These types of patents are easier to obtain and are less expensive but you should have a patent lawyer in California review your provisional patent application to insure that you are meeting your objectives when you file your patent.

What Our Customers Have to Say

"UpCounsel gives me access to big-firm lawyers minus the big-firm price tag. I work with several attorneys on the platform and there are never surprises...I always receive quality legal work at competitive rates that larger firms simply cannot match."

Scott Woods
SVP & General Counsel

"Every startup needs to know about UpCounsel. We found great attorneys at great prices and were able to focus our resources on improving our business instead of paying legal bills."

Sean Conway
Co-founder & CEO

"Before UpCounsel it was hard for us to find the right lawyer with the right expertise for our business. UpCounsel solves those problems by being more affordable and helping us find the right lawyer in no time."

Patent Application Assistance

Joel Douglas

"I had an excellent experience working with Joel Douglas on my U.S. provisional patent application. Joel was professional, knowledgeable, responsive, and very clear throughout the process. He carefully reviewed my invention disclosure, addressed my questions and revisions, and helped ensure that the technical material was properly presented for the patent filing. I particularly appreciated his practical approach and his guidance on including the Computer Program Listing Appendix. The application was successfully filed with the USPTO as planned, and I am very satisfied with both the quality of his work and the overall process. I would definitely recommend Joel to inventors seeking experienced patent counsel."

"Ross provided exceptional legal counsel for our recent hardware FTO and clearance analysis. We were operating under a strictly accelerated, one-week deadline, and Ross exceeded all expectations. He quickly grasped the complex mechanical geometries of our product and delivered highly detailed claim charts and a robust non-infringement opinion ahead of schedule—even while navigating a holiday weekend. His communication was consistently prompt, clear, and professional. If you need a patent attorney who combines deep technical acumen with incredible speed and reliability, I cannot recommend Ross highly enough."
