OFH understands optics patents.

Rapid patent portfolio review for inventors and competitors

Drafting invention disclosures for attorney filing

IP landscape analysis including file-wrapper review

Experience: OFH is not a law firm – we’re real engineers. OFH has 20+ years experience reading, analyzing, and drafting patent applications and invention disclosures. "Rush jobs” are no problem; over one holiday weekend we analyzed 51 consumer-electronics optics patents. (But since we’re not attorneys, we cannot provide legal advice or file patent applications for you. We will refer you to attorneys we trust.)

OFH holds key autostereoscopic display patents.
