“Communication”

Gary P.

Phone calls and texts did not work. There was an extreme lack of communication until I typed a review. After that, I received contact within 2 hours. They apologized for their lateness and quickly got my paperwork and marketing packages sent out. Thanks to Howard Chow and Jaeyoung Chon for their efforts.

“No Communication”

Everything started very well and i was pleased. I paid for each service they offered to me even the fast trac system for additional fees that was approved by the us patent office so i wouldn't have to wait 12 months. Patent examiner rejected my utility patent why offer that service if your going to automatically get rejected. That was a waste money. So i paid additional fees to appeal the patent that almost 2 months i havent heard back from Howard or jay. I have sent emails with no response. I tried to look up the patent pending application on the us patent website and it doesn't exist or even give a patent pending status. It has cost me everything i have to trust this firm i live low income and i am disabled since birth so gathering funds was very difficult. I guess we will wait and see. It's hard to trust people from another state.

I am extremely happy with the professional service I received in drafting my design patent application. The professionalism and prompt responses to all of my questions exceed my expectations. I looked at a number of companies before I decided to go with Thoughts To Paper. If you're looking to obtain a patent of your invention, look no further than Thoughts To Paper. A special thank you goes out to Ryan, Noble and Henry.

I first approached Thoughts to Paper to understand how to file a patent and see if they could help me navigate the process. A year later I have obtained a provisional patent and just filed for my first utility patent. I couldn't have done it without them. I will definitely be using them for my next big idea and recommend them to anyone who is interested in obtaining a patent, especially if you do not have any experience.

Tip for consumers:
I would recommend that you have at least a written draft or outline of what you would like to patented. I found that this helped the process move smoothly.

This is my second filing patents by Thoughts to Paper in the last 4 months, first a design and second is a utility patent. Both of them went through nicely and clearly step by step. I am so happy to have them done. My contact person here is Ryan Iffland, Thank you Ryan. I will have 1 more patent need to be done, with bring it to you in couple months from now.
I would highly recommend Thoughts to Paper.

I had no idea what to expect... and was very pleasantly surprised that I was truly supported through the entire process by patient, smart people.

I'm no engineer and my design changed during the process... my communication skills are average... my Patent Engineer (Minu!) worked hard to understand my invention and keep me on deadline.

I never had to push them to work, they never seemed rushed or impatient.

I strongly recommended Thoughts To Paper.

When I checked their on their website, I found that they obtained 3000+ patents, so I though I should give this company a try.
It took me a dozen times to email back and forth to get my patent application filled, but finally, everything is done.
Mr Jaeyong Chon is very very helpful, he even worked on Thanksgiving holiday to help me. I always have fast answers for any questions. They are very cute LOL Thank you very much!

My service with Thoughts to Paper was wonderful. I had a great team of guys who walked me thru the whole process step by step. They were very knowledgeable and answered all of my questions that I had on the Provisional Utility Patent that I was applying for, so I could understand. They made me feel very comfortable about what I was doing and will be moving forward in the next 12 months with the Non-provisional Patent application. Thank You!

Filing a patent is a complex and complicated process especially for a novice like me. Without the help from the team of "Thoughts to Paper" I would have been lost. There is also the issue of the technical language and the quality of the drawings. They are well organized guiding me through the process step by step. Communication was excellent. Thanks for their help I was able to submit two filings.

This is the second time we've used Thoughts to Paper. The entire process is always very streamlined and professional. They also balance all of this by being very committed to your project, easy to talk to, and can explain and answer questions and concerns so you can get the best protection possible.
We wouldn't use anyone else.

These guys know their stuff! I have used other patent firms previously and that afforded me the confidence to know TTP is leaps and bounds ahead of the game. They actually seem to care as opposed to just being the obligatory paper-filler-outer that is needed to file patents. They discussed all the options with me and made sure we were not just on the same page, but that the patent was as strong as it could be. I am thrilled I decided to use TTP for my process. I will use them over and again in the future I am sure.

Tip for consumers:
Don't waste time on other patent service providers. Thought to paper is the real deal!

I was just blown away by Thoughts to Paper's ability to take a concept, develop it, and execute it with such clarity, skill, and professionalism. I felt like I was Bill Gates or somebody famous. Every member of their team gave me unprecedented attention, time and they totally got it! They listened to every word and concept I was trying to convey, laid everything out, and got me through the application process in an unbelievably short amount of time. Thank you Tony, Tien, and JaeYoung. You guys rock!

I have been working with "Thoughts to Paper" since 2017. They filed for my Company a number of Provisional, as well as Utility Patent Applications in U.S. and Internationally. They also filed two Trademark Applications.

The team in "Thoughts to Paper" is very experienced with the subject matter and very provisional in all their interactions.

My experience with "Thoughts to Paper" is quite positive and I highly recommend their services.

I dealt with Ryan through the entire process from patent search to patent pending. Ryan kept in touch about deadlines and paperwork that needed to be signed.
Trent the patent attorney followed up with me on the scope of the project and made suggestions for my review. I was happy with the revisions and feel confident they have done everything possible to represent my product to get my full patent. I have other projects in the future and will use them again.

Finding someone to look after your IP needs when you are not physically located in the country was a little daunting. After careful consideration I decided to go with Thoughts to Paper and I have to say the service was excellent every step of the way. I highly recommend.

Thoughts to Paper have been exceptionally professional in their work and reaching timelines. We connected with them in 2017 when they did a prior art search for our product and eventually filled a provisional patent application in April 2019. We then got together in December of 2019 to pursue our patent application making it non-provisional. In just 2 months their patent experts communicated with us, wrote the preliminary drafts, made excellent diagrams and have submitted our provisional application. It was a great experience.
