William Lang’s Summary

For the past 11 years, I have protected the innovations and commercial identities of my clients through patents, trademarks, copyrights, and trade secrets. After honing my craft at various firms – including one of the largest in the world and one of the oldest in the United States - I came to believe that the best quality advocacy and counseling could be provided to my clients with greater cost effectiveness by a more efficient business model.

My location in Beaver, Pennsylvania, near Pittsburgh, is advantageous for both my practice and my clients. For me, it provides reduced operating costs. For my clients, the low cost of living and doing business in the Pittsburgh area enables me to keep the costs of my services well below the fees charged by other firms providing similar quality. The combination of my experience with my business model allows me to provide the highest level of quality and personalized service, resulting in exceptional value for my clients.

When you engage my services, the protection of your innovations receives my individual attention. Your projects will not be passed off to junior associates or to non-attorney, non-agent “technical advisors.” You will not have to repeatedly pay for another attorney to get up to speed on your project. Regardless of whether you are an individual inventor, a start-up company, a mid-size company, or a multinational corporation, you can be assured that the protection of your ideas receives the highest level of attention to detail.

Your innovations, know-how, and reputation are important to you and your business. I can ensure that your intellectual assets receive the best possible protection.
