US RESIDENTS

Ade & Company Inc. has been in business in preparing, filing and prosecuting patent applications in Canada and USA for over 60 years and acts on patent matters for many clients including individuals, small, medium and large companies, Universities and Research Institutions in Canada, in the United States and other countries.

In its ongoing effort to obtain the strongest patents for its clients while handling matters with the most efficiency, Ade & Company Inc. members have strong technical backgrounds and always ensure that the person with the most technical knowledge related to an invention personally handles all preparation and prosecution of the patent application in USA or Canada. In this way all preparation and prosecution of the application is handled by the same person to avoid potential misunderstandings where additional persons are involved.

With this approach, Ade & Company Inc. regularly obtains effective patent protection in USA and other countries for its clients, including many US clients, while often avoiding significant costs for preparation and prosecution work by United States Attorneys.

In part due to the exchange rate between Canada and USA, our US clients commonly find that our fees are considerably less than corresponding fees from United States Attorneys, thus further reducing total costs of obtaining grant of US Patents for US residents.
