How a Wellness & Fitness Business Hired a Lawyer to Prepare & File a Patent Application in Wisconsin

In 2026, a business in Wisconsin sought assistance with filing a patent application for a proprietary software method integral to their mobile wellness and personal-growth app. The client aimed to determine the patentability of their innovation and to explore a comprehensive protection strategy that included not just a utility patent, but also potential trade secrets and design patents. They were looking for expert guidance in drafting and filing a provisional patent application, if deemed appropriate. As a result, the client received two proposals from licensed attorneys, with flat fee bids ranging from $375 to $1,500, all submitted to meet the requested deadline of over a week.
