Protecting Ideas Before Risk Becomes Costly

If you’re building a product, you’re also building risk. Early designs, supplier conversations, and public filings can expose ideas before you’re ready. As patent attorneys, we help inventors and product companies protect innovations before mistakes become expensive.


Based in Philadelphia and serving clients nationwide, we focus on clear guidance, smart timing, and patent strategies that support real business goals.

About Milano IP

What Patent Attorneys Do for Inventors and Product Companies

Our role is to turn real inventions into protection you can use. That starts with understanding what makes your product different and how you need the patent to work in the market.


Patent attorneys help you:


  • Identify what is truly protectable


  • Avoid narrow or incomplete filings


  • Cover variations, improvements, and future versions



  • Align patent scope with licensing, funding, or growth plans


Strong patents are built intentionally, not rushed.

Milano IP supports clients across the full patent lifecycle with practical services designed to protect real products and real business interests. Each service is focused on clarity, risk reduction, and alignment with how products are built, sold, and defended. Below are the core patent attorney services Milano IP provides.

From Invention Review to Patent Filing

The patent process works best when it follows a clear path. We guide clients through each step so nothing important gets missed. The U.S. Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) is the federal agency that reviews and grants patents and trademarks in the United States. All patent applications are examined through this process.


The process typically includes:



  • Invention intake and technical review


  • Prior art and risk assessment


  • Drafting and filing the patent application


  • Responding to USPTO office actions


  • Managing timing and documentation as products evolve


Good records matter. Good timing matters more.

When to Involve a Patent Infringement Attorney

Some issues need attention immediately. Early action protects options and preserves leverage.


Contact a patent attorney if you see:


  • A competing product that closely mirrors your design


  • Online listings that track your specifications


  • Supplier or partner misuse of shared information



  • Demand letters or threats of litigation


Many matters can be resolved through strategic steps before litigation becomes necessary.

Protecting More Than Patents

Most product companies need more than one form of protection. We help clients build the right mix, based on how they design, manufacture, and sell.


Protection may include:


  • Patents for how products work or look


  • Trademarks for names, logos, and brand identity


  • Copyright for manuals, drawings, content, and software


  • Trade secrets for confidential methods and data


The goal is coverage that matches how your business actually operates.
