Products and Inventions Wanted June 2008
If you have a question, send us an e-mail. Because of the number of submissions we receive, we are unable to talk by telephone unless we have received enough information in an email to let us know we are interested (please do not reveal proprietary information in an initial e-mail). Due to travel schedules, we are occasionally slow in responding to emails, we ask that you be patient if you don’t hear from us immediately.
Please remember that we are very selective. Fewer than 3% of submissions made to Pelham West are ultimately reviewed by clients. While some of our clients prefer to review a product or invention early in its development, other clients require that a product be patent pending or have an office action taken on a filed patent application.
Our clients include small manufacturers and distributors as well as Fortune 100 and Fortune 500 companies.

matched small companies with patented products already on the market to
clients who have purchased the company. The quality of the issued patent is important.
