Hi everybody!

We are a Californian startup company in the Healthcare/IT sector. How long does it usually take from hiring a patent attorney to a patent being granted? Is there a way to speed up the procedure?

Thanks!

Hi,

I general, it depends on jurisdiction and technology. As you are in US therefore the minimum time would be around 13-15 months based on the conditions such as:

1. Your attorney can complete the overall pre-filing needs in 1-2 month time (for regular patent)

2. You area of patent falls in accelerated examination defined domain or you apply for fast track and its get granted by USPTO.

For normal process it takes around 32-40 months time.

Let me know in case of any more query.

Regards,
Ashutosh
