The U.S. Patent Office is now offering a way to get a final decision on a patent application within one year of filing. This new program is called the accelerated examination program and is available to applicants who are willing to follow the additional requirements set forth in the Federal Register notice dated June 26, 2006. The obvious benefit of the accelerated examination program is getting a final decision much more quickly, but there are some limitations the applicant must accept in order to take advantage of this program.

We can prepare your accelerated patent application for an agreed-upon fixed fee. Please contact our office to learn more about this new program.
