Marine and Offshore Technology

Thrive IP^®’s Charleston and Hampton Roads offices is uniquely located along the Atlantic Ocean between Miami and Washington, DC.  We are one of the few IP firms with a trained maritime attorney practicing along this stretch of coastline. Two of our attorneys are former U.S. Navy sailors. As a result, we are frequently called upon by shipbuilders, boat hull designers, fishing gear companies, defense contractors, and other marine technology companies to assist with their intellectual property needs.  We have also written patent applications related to the hydrokinetic generation of electricity, subsea architecture design, LNG transport, deep sea drilling, marine power systems, auxiliary marine components, and other marine applications.
