About US
WHY MY PATENT GUYS?
Johan Eide and Chris Pilling are the founders of My Patent Guys. Our goal is to help protect your idea at a reasonable cost. At My Patent Guys we have a passion for innovation and are entrepreneurs just like you. You don’t have to look any further for quality patent law counsel without the endless billable hours of big law firms. We are not your typical law firm, we are just two guys with over a decade of patent law prosecution experience.
Unlike many patent practitioners, we are entrepreneurs too, which puts us in your shoes. Outside of freelancing we are small business owners who know how tough it is out there. We have experience at every stage of transforming a great idea to a global product, which gives us a unique perspective on the entire process, rather than specific portions. Additionally, we work together to compile two legal opinions on every patent application and engineering project, as we strive to provide the best patent strategy to our clients.
THE
PRACTITIONERS
Johan Eide
Patent Agent, Engineer & Entrepreneur
After pursuing an undergraduate degree in Bio-Resource & Agricultural Engineering at California Polytechnic State University in San Luis Obispo, my own need for intellectual property protection spurred me on to pursue a career in Patent Law and to take the Patent Bar. Within my engineering discipline and field of law, I tend to focus upon and enjoy mechanical design, CNC machining, additive manufacturing, rapid prototyping, product design/development, patent law, investments, and entrepreneurship.
Chris Pilling
Patent Agent, Engineer & Entrepreneur
My name is Chris Pilling, a former Patent Examiner with the United States Patent Office, now a Patent Agent. I was in the system approving and rejecting patent applications, now I’m on the outside helping inventors like you. My goal is to help protect your idea at a reasonable cost. I have a passion for innovation. No matter what stage of the invention process you’re at I will help you succeed. I have experience handling many different technologies and I am confident in my ability to understand inventors in various arts, including mechanical, electrical, software, hardware, and business methods.
