The Real Risk

You already know something is at stake.
You just don't know what to do.

01
You showed people your idea and now you're not sure if it's too late
The moment you publicly disclosed — a pitch, a post, a trade show — a 12-month countdown started. Miss it and US patent rights are gone forever. Most inventors don't know the clock started.
02
You filed something yourself or with an online service and you're not confident it's solid
A patent with weak claims is worse than no patent — it gives you false security while competitors legally design around every gap. Claim quality is everything. It cannot be undone after filing.
03
Someone is already copying your product and you don't know how to stop them
Every day an infringer sells on Amazon or at retail, they build customer trust that belongs to you. A licensed attorney can issue a cease & desist, file an Amazon IP complaint, and shut it down fast.
04
You don't know if your idea is patentable — or where to start
Filing without knowing is gambling thousands on an unknown. A professional patentability search tells you the landscape in 3 weeks — and saves you from a costly application that was never going to be approved.
One free call
answers all of it.

Eric has spent 25 years answering exactly these questions. He'll tell you where you stand, what's at risk, and what to do — on the call, for free.

Your Attorney

25 years. 1,000+ patents.
Not a single one invalidated in court.

Eric Karich founded Karich & Associates in 2000 and has practiced exclusively in patent and trademark law ever since — not as one service among many, but as his complete focus for a quarter century.

He's filed patents for Amazon sellers, hardware startups, software companies, AI platforms, and complex medical device manufacturers. His philosophy is blunt: get the right protection in place, avoid litigation wherever possible, and give you clarity so you can run your business instead of worrying about your IP.

Three things people always ask before booking

Is this call actually free — what's the catch?
+
No catch. The 30-minute strategy call is a genuine consultation, not a sales pitch. Eric will give you real, actionable legal guidance on your specific situation. If it makes sense to work together, great. If not, you'll still leave knowing exactly where you stand.
Will Eric actually be on the call — or an assistant?
+
Eric personally takes every consultation call. Not a paralegal, not an intake coordinator. You get 25+ years of patent attorney experience from the first conversation. That's specifically why slots are limited — it's his time.
I'm not ready to file — is it still worth calling now?
+
Yes — especially if you're not ready. The biggest mistakes happen before filing: disclosing too early, waiting too long, or assuming you have more time than you do. A 30-minute call now can tell you whether you're in the clear or whether there's a deadline you don't know about yet.
