With decades of experience and a streamlined internal system, we help ensure that your intellectual property remains active, protected, and fully compliant with patent office requirements.

Comprehensive Maintenance Fee Management

Ade & Company Inc. maintains an extensive docketing system dedicated to tracking and managing maintenance deadlines for a wide range of patent and design matters.

Direct Filing for Cost Efficiency

Our firm handles maintenance fee payments directly with patent offices whenever possible.
This approach offers two major advantages:

  • Lower costs by avoiding fees charged by intermediate firms

  • Greater accuracy through direct communication, reducing the risk of misinterpretation or missed deadlines

 
Over the years, this has allowed us to maintain thousands of patents efficiently and at a lower cost for our clients.

Document Retrieval and Support Services

Beyond fee payment, Ade & Company Inc. also provides access to a wide range of supporting patent documents from many countries. We can obtain:
 

  • Patent and design registrations

  • Published and pending applications

  • File histories

  • Certified copies for priority filings

 
These resources can support maintenance, filing strategy, international applications, and overall portfolio management.
