Kontos seeks to help inventors and entrepreneurs prepare and file their own US provisional patent applications to get to "patent pending" as quickly and inexpensively as possible. Stephen developed these techniques over the course of his career drafting and filing over 500 patent applications for some of the world's largest and most innovative companies. Now, he presents his technique in a plain English, easy-to-understand format.
