The Association of Patent Law Firms (APLF) is a national association of
law firms that devote a majority of their practice to patent law.
Practicing attorneys of our member firms are skilled and experienced in
the areas of patent application work, litigation, and counselling
services. We seek to fill a void that has been left by other
organizations that have broadened their base to the general field of
"intellectual property law." As an alliance strictly of patent law
firms, a major objective is to jointly promote the advantages realized
by clients when they select a patent law firm for patent application
work, litigation, and counseling services.
