We are seeking an experienced U.S.-licensed patent attorney to review, advise on, and file patent applications for a consumer product invention in the home & garden category.
We already have professional USPTO-compliant patent drawings prepared by an experienced technical draftsperson, and we are looking for an attorney who can:
• Review the drawings and overall invention critically
• Advise on design vs. utility patent strategy (or combination)
• Draft and file the appropriate patent application(s) with the USPTO
• Provide guidance on claim scope and potential risks
• Coordinate directly with our draftsperson if minor revisions are needed
This is not a “rush filing.” We care about doing this correctly and are looking for someone thoughtful, experienced, and communicative.
Project Details
• Product: Physical consumer product (self-watering plant insert / planter system)
• Status:
• Design patent drawings completed and USPTO-compliant
• Product has been prototyped and tested
• Scope:
• Review of existing drawings and invention
• Legal strategy recommendation
• Drafting and filing with the USPTO
• We are open to ongoing work if the relationship is a good fit
What We’re Looking For
Required:
• U.S.-licensed patent attorney (or patent agent working under attorney supervision)
• Demonstrated experience with design patents
• Experience with utility patents for physical consumer products
• Strong understanding of USPTO requirements and examiner expectations
• Willingness to collaborate with our existing draftsperson
Preferred:
• Experience across multiple product categories (not just one niche)
• Clear communicator who can explain tradeoffs and decisions
• Practical, not overly academic or boilerplate-driven
