Patent Assistance Worldwide Delivers Intellectual Property Expertise to Novice Inventors

NEW YORK, NY, August 10, 2012

In the world of technology, disputes over intellectual property are nothing new. The Wall Street Journal proves as much with a recent story on the ongoing patent feuds between AOL and Vringo. The Journal says that AOL has agreed to settle at least part of the patent dispute; Vringo, a video ringtone company, has been involved in numerous intellectual property feuds throughout the last several months. The story has won the attention of Patent Assistance Worldwide, a company that seeks to deliver an array of intellectual property services to new or first-time inventors.

Patent Assistance Worldwide has responded to the Wall Street Journal article with a statement to the press. "The AOL and Vringo story is really nothing extraordinary, and that's the point," says company representative Mark Fallows. "These patent disputes are happening all the time, especially in the world of technology. Patents are lucrative, whereas patent law is complex and at times a little prickly, so if you're going to invent something, it is imperative to enlist the best intellectual property guidance possible."

Patent Assistance Worldwide seeks to deliver that guidance, though Fallows is adamant in saying that his firm is not a law office. "At Patent Assistance Worldwide, we believe in the importance of a good patent attorney, but we are not patent attorneys ourselves," he says. "What we offer is a clearinghouse of services, including access to top patent attorneys at discounted rates."

Fallows observes that this kind of service could prove invaluable to any new inventor. "For new inventors, it is obviously important to get some intellectual property protection, and that's something that a good patent lawyer can help with," the spokesman says. "The downside is that a good patent attorney can be costly. Patent Assistance Worldwide can put inventors in touch with great lawyers, and often secure lower rates than what the inventor might otherwise have to pay."

Patent Assistance Worldwide is more than just a network of patent attorneys. Fallows says that the company seeks to provide inventors with everything they need to protect their intellectual property--and to profit from it. "Our clearinghouse of services also boasts access to patent illustrators. We can put inventors in touch with best-in-class marketing teams. We even have access to patent research assistants," Fallows enthuses.

The bottom line for Fallows is that his company delivers every service that a new or aspiring inventor might need. "A great idea can ultimately generate lots of money, but unfortunately you have to do some work on the front end in order for that to happen," he says. "Patent Assistance Worldwide is here to make that leg work easier, and more affordable, to first-time inventors."
