Patent Attorneys You Can Trust: Simplifying Intellectual Property Protection for Inventors, Entrepreneurs, and Startups



The spark of an idea can change everything. For many inventors, that first flash of creativity brings both excitement and purpose. It can also raise important questions about how to protect what has been created. Turning an idea into a secure innovation begins with trust. Selecting the right patent attorneys means choosing professionals who value both your vision and your confidence.

At Parsons & Goltry, PLLC, based in Phoenix, that trust begins with clarity. Every conversation, recommendation, and document is built around one goal: helping inventors, entrepreneurs, and startups protect their ideas with confidence and understanding. Intellectual property protection becomes simpler when handled by patent attorneys who care about communication, transparency, and collaboration.

Why is Finding the Right Patent Attorney So Critical?

Progress in innovation depends on the strength of the partnership between inventor and attorney. Parsons & Goltry, PLLC recognizes that transparency and clear communication establish a foundation of trust that helps ideas grow into protected achievements. Inventors are encouraged to discuss their concepts openly, confident that each detail will be treated with care and integrity.

Understanding Patent Protection

Patent protection plays a vital role in safeguarding creativity and innovation. A utility patent focuses on how an invention functions, while a design patent secures its visual appeal, ensuring both form and function are well protected. Each type of patent supports different aspects of innovation, creating stronger foundations for future growth and originality.

At Parsons & Goltry, PLLC, every client receives clear guidance on selecting the right patent type. Utility patents may cover mechanical structures or software processes, while design patents highlight unique shapes, surface patterns, or product packaging. This clarity allows inventors to protect the distinct qualities that make their creations valuable in a competitive market.

The patent process begins with a confidential consultation where ideas are evaluated for protection potential. Attorneys prepare and submit the application to the USPTO, then carefully address examiner communications to strengthen the claims. Through consistent collaboration, the process remains organized, transparent, and tailored to meet each inventor’s business goals.

How the Right Patent Attorney Makes Complex Simple

Collaborating with skilled patent attorneys turns a detailed process into a clear and productive experience. Transparent communication builds confidence, while consistent support helps transform ideas into protected assets. This approach creates a foundation where innovation feels both guided and achievable.

Parsons & Goltry, PLLC prioritizes clarity, cost awareness, and meaningful collaboration. Clients receive straightforward pricing information before any step begins, along with purposeful explanations of each recommendation, from patentability evaluations to full application filings. This openness fosters trust and ensures every action aligns with clear objectives.

"Mr. Goltry took a provisional patent that we'd filed ourselves, and quickly and professionally turned our innovation into U.S. and foreign applications. His [patent claims] were a thing of beauty, and I was amazed by how deftly he countered the inevitable office actions. His language held up, and the U.S. Patent just issued. He was easy and efficient to work with, and his fees were remarkably reasonable. We're not planning to go anywhere else, ever."

- Ski Milburn, CEO, Victori, LLC

"I applied for a patent through Parsons & Goltry. After being on the docket for 2 years at the USPTO, I received notification that my patent request had been denied. Michael Goltry contacted me immediately to review my options. After I informed him of my decision to move forward, he filed a response to the USPTO. In his response he got the examiner to fully understand the claims in the patent application and the "denied" decision was reversed. I was able to secure and receive a "patent granted" decision. Thank you, Michael Goltry."
