Capital Legal Group, LLC is a Washington, DC-area law firm that provides intellectual property solutions for businesses in the United States and around the world. We help our clients develop a comprehensive patent portfolio to successfully maintain and improve their position within the marketplace.  While the bulk of the services we provide our clients consists of patent prosecution, we also provide license, joint venture, and development agreement negotiating and drafting, infringement analyses, right-to-use determinations, IP diligence, and opinions.

   

 

Here are some reasons why you should consider us for your patent prosecution needs.

We seek the broadest available patent scope.
Unlike most firms who simply help their clients get a patent, we seek patents that have the very broadest available scope – patents of real business and economic value to our clients.

This is obviously extremely important because broader scope reduces the likelihood that competitors can design around the patent, which in turn increases licensing revenues and creates a larger barrier to competitors. So how do we do this?

  • We are local to the US Patent Office and conduct interviews in person with patent examiners at every opportunity. We find this instrumental in getting broad coverage.
  • Our clients never get a trainee working on their applications, only experienced attorneys. 
  • Prior to coming to Capital Legal Group, our attorneys have litigated patent cases at various courts around the country, the International Trade Commission, and at the Federal Circuit. Our litigation experience helps us to be persuasive with the patent examiners and allows us to draft sound patent applications.

We provide the greatest value for your legal budget.
Compared to other firms, we offer a lot more value for each client dollar. In short, our clients get big firm patent experience with a small firm price tag.

For example, our most experienced attorney has worked at such firms as Howrey & Simon; Morgan, Lewis & Bockius; and has served as an in-house. However, his hourly rate is on par for that of a junior associate at a large firm.

We provide great customer service.
We pride ourselves on providing fanatical customer service. Our Clients typically get immediate responses to client emails and calls. We’re also flexible in how we provide our service and can provide fast turn around to meet client deadlines.

Our goal is to understand our clients business first, so that we can provide top tier patent services. Specifically, we strive to understand our clients business and, then, how the client’s technology fits into that business. This knowledge enables us to develop a patent strategy and, subsequently, draft applications to best provide a competitive advantage, which should be the primary goal of any intellectual property strategy. 

We pride ourselves on staying on the cutting edge of technology and are a completely paperless firm for US patent prosecution.  While Capital Legal Group is a small firm, our patent attorneys have big law firm credentials and in-house experience.  In addition, our personnel has experience providing legal services to corporate giants such as Siemens, Caterpillar, Rockwell International, and Medtronic among others.
