The Law Office of Scot S Fagerland
For fastest service, please click through directly to my website and book your free consultation there. I specialize in the following services for small businesses, inventors, and entrepreneurs: patents, trademarks, business names, NDAs, and forming and dissolving corporations and LLCs. After a free 30-minute consultation, a retainer is optional and services are billed hourly at $200 - 250 / hr. Ballpark figures: Utility patent app. $4-6K, design patent app. $2 - 3K, trademark app. $1 - 2K, full business establishment or dissolution $2K. I will talk you through the obstacles to IP registration and will not ask you to commit to each step until I advise you of my confidence. My patent portfolio includes design patents and utility patents for household gadgets and appliances. I am registered with the US Patent and Trademark Office, and I handle the international stage of foreign PCT patent applications. As a small business owner myself, I am experienced with the legal legwork of getting a small business up and running. Starting a business involves sizable start-up expenses, but my advice is, "Do it once and do it right!" Although I prefer to consult with my clients in person if possible, I conduct nearly all of my case work alone or remotely. As a practical matter, I can service clients globally. I am well-established in Los Angeles; see my LA profile for my 5-star reviews. I am opening the northern CA location in the fall of 2022.
