Why Choose Tomas Friend LLC?

Competition in the global economy is driving businesses to reduce costs, preferably without sacrificing quality. The aim of Tomas Friend LLC is to help our clients obtain U.S. patents for their inventions at a relatively low cost while maintaining high professional standards in the quality of our work.

European clients often obtain the services of U.S. patent practitioners through their European patent attorneys. European patent law firms usually have reciprocal agreements with U.S. patent law firms, through which they refer clients to one another. These agreements can be very helpful to clients but they may not always be the most cost effective from the client's perspective. Time zone differences of between 6 and 9 hours and indirect lines of communication can add to costs as cause delays. In our experience, there is no substitute for direct communication between inventors their patent professionals when it comes to efficient and cost effective patent prosecution.
