Working With Inventors From Idea to Filing

Inventors often wonder how far along an idea has to be before it can be protected — whether there needs to be a prototype, sketches, or a fully worked-out design. The honest answer is that it varies, and the moment an invention becomes protectable work is a fact-specific question.

Lynch LLP works with inventors from early concept through filing: drawing out the invention, collecting the technical disclosure, and preparing the application. Where a given project sits on that path depends on its own facts.
