Shoemaker and Mattare have been preparing and prosecuting U.S. patent and trademark applications since 1940. We engage exclusively in the practice of intellectual property law, including domestic and international patent protection, trademarks, copyrights and licensing.
We have obtained thousands of patents in diverse technologies including medical equipment, oil production, metallurgy, building construction, packaging, bedding, printing and electronics. Whatever the industry or market, obtaining a patent can protect your intellectual property and give your business a competitive advantage.
Searching has always been an integral part of our practice. We have performed tens of thousands of searches in a broad range of technologies, and conduct searches daily at the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office in Alexandria.
