About
When you come to Thompson Patent Law, the first thing that stands out is that about 30% of the time, we actually recommend that our clients DO NOT file a patent application. We work hard from the very beginning to make sure that the client is empowered to make a fully informed decision about whether and how much to invest in a patent.
We stand 100% against the conventional process that most patent firms use, which we believe amounts to "patent gambling." Patent gambling unfortunately tends to boost short term profits for the law firm at the expense of the client's opportunity.
To avoid this, we created a unique, proprietary 7 Step Strategic Patent Assessment process that elevates our clients to the level of "patent investing."
We believe that patents should be created to become the highly valuable business assets that they were intended to be. Only if the client's business case meets certain very clear and practical business criteria - backed by a solid business plan to add asset value to the client's balance sheet and revenue to the client's income statement- will we recommend filing a patent.
This long term, quality over quantity approach accounts for our long term relationships with clients.
And, it is the right thing to do.
We speak fluent engineer. (TM)
Our legal team is made of electrical engineers who have significant industry experience.
We love the opportunity to continuously see cutting edge technology, and we are blessed with the opportunity to apply the disciplines of patent law to create powerful business assets for entrepreneurs and their companies.

All around Craig and his team are well organized and effective. Organization is critical in the patent world because you need someone watching the patent process, during the application period and after it grants; the last thing you want to have happen is to lose your rights to your IP, including priority rights to your IP because someone wasn't watching the ball for you. Additionally I believe Craige is very effective at providing you the best chance of getting your idea (claims) accepted by the USPTO.

Craige has a thorough understanding of patent law and how i effects your business. We have worked on a number of matters together over the past few years and he always adds valuable insights to the client's business. He is responsive, knowledgeable, dedicated, hard-working, result driven, and personable.

I've had a very good experience working with Thompson law Offices over the past couple of years. They are very good at what they do. Currently they've obtained a patent for me in a reasonable time frame, and are pursuing yet another one. Not only are they very good, but they are cognizant of the financial aspects of this process, always taking into consideration the cost to their customers. I wouldn't hesitate to continue to work with them on future projects.

Thompson Patent Law provides patent prosecution support and due diligence investigations on an on-going basis. Craige's team takes a hands on approach to reviewing new disclosures and can perform a prior art search before beginning the drafting process. The approach to drafting patent applications is thorough and responsive to the needs of the client while keeping apprised of changes in US Patent Laws and Judicial Decisions which can impact both the scope and content of the project.
