Freedom to Operate

A Freedom to Operate (FTO) or clearance search will help you assess the risk that your product carries regarding infringement of existing valid patents. Our FTO search brings you peace of mind to freely operate the new device or service that you are introducing to the market. When bringing new technologies to a particular jurisdiction, the FTO will help you make sure it can be operated and there will be no infringements.

Working with Riahi was very smooth and pleasant experience. As soon as I called them to inquire about getting copyright for my material, they explained the clear steps to complete the process and starred immediately. Next, I got provided a comprehensive background study by a team and proceeded with filing. The lawyer submitted the request in few business days and eventually, I got all the job done earlier than their promised ETA.

I would like to write a review for prospective customers. Since our knowledge was limited regarding trademark and patent, working on any topic in this area was challenging, and a professional firm can help facilitate the process. I was lucky to work with Riahi Patents Inc on our logo trademark registration. It was a pleasure working with Dr. Siamak to learn about our logo trademark registration details. It was a very smooth process, and he explained the process in simple language. I highly recommend working with them if you need a firm that cares about customers and listens to their needs.
