About CrossVision IP

Where Patent Practice
Meets Backend Execution

An independent backend patent-support practice built at the intersection of U.S., European, and Chinese patent systems — serving law firms, licensed counsel, and corporate IP teams that need senior-level depth without adding headcount.

Our Story

Built from Practice,
Not Theory

CrossVision IP was founded on a simple observation: many consequential decisions in international patent prosecution arise in the space between legal systems — between what a Chinese specification says and what a USPTO examiner reads, between EPO problem-solution reasoning and U.S. claim-construction doctrine.

After more than fifteen years working with U.S., European, and Chinese patent matters — analyzing Office Actions, supporting prosecution strategy, and adapting Chinese patent documents for U.S. and European practice — we recognized a consistent gap in the market. Law firms and corporate IP teams needed access to practitioner-grade backend support without the cost and rigidity of full-time engagement.

CrossVision IP was built to fill that gap. We work as a quiet backend resource for attorneys and IP departments: reviewing prosecution files, preparing claim charts, translating and adapting patent documents, and providing technical analysis for counsel-led cross-border portfolio decisions.

The name reflects our core philosophy. "Cross" speaks to the borders we cross —between legal systems, between languages, between technical disciplines. "Vision" speaks to what we bring: a practitioner's eye trained on both the immediate tactical question and the long-term strategic picture.

Why CrossVision IP

Three Reasons Practitioners Choose Us

01
Dual-System Fluency
Many patent professionals are deep in one system. Our value is cross-system fluency: how the same claim language, specification support, and amendment record may be read differently in U.S., European, and Chinese practice.
02
Translation That Understands Law
Our patent translation work is not ordinary technical translation. It is prosecution adaptation: terminology, antecedent basis, claim dependencies, support language, and amendment flexibility are reviewed with U.S. and European practice in mind.
03
Backend Discretion
We operate as backend support behind your firm or IP department. Your clients and relationships remain yours. We provide technical and prosecution-support depth under your direction, without taking over the client-facing role.
How We Work

The Backend Consultancy Model

For Law Firms
We serve as a behind-the-scenes technical and prosecution-support resource for patent attorneys and agents. Whether you need a second opinion on a §103 rejection, a CN→EN translation for filing, or appeal-support analysis, we integrate into your workflow under your direction.
For Corporate IP Teams
We support in-house patent counsel and IP departments that need senior-level analysis without adding headcount, especially companies expanding patent portfolios into the U.S. and Europe from a Chinese R&D base.
Project-Based Engagements
Not every need is ongoing. We accept project-based support for single Office Actions, translation/adaptation tasks, prior-art mapping, claim charts, and prosecution-review memoranda —with clear scope, deliverables, and timelines agreed upfront.
Retainer Arrangements
For law firms and IP departments with recurring needs, we offer retainer arrangements that provide priority access, predictable capacity, and a working relationship that deepens over time —so we become a trusted extension of your team.
