Patentability Search Report

The first step towards patenting your invention is to search if has the potential to be patented. This is accomplished by searching the prior art (in simple words, every thing available to the public anywhere). There is basically always some prior art available (a publication, previous patent, a product for sale etc). When we find the prior art, we compare your invention to the prior art to see if it is patentable. We also highlight the similarities and differences which give you a note how to overcome the prior art.

Patentability search report is a scientific opinion document and it is different from the Freedom To Operate (FTO) report. Currently we do not provide FTO report which is more as a legal document.

Patent Drafting

Patent drafting is a unique art that requires expertise and mixed knowledge of science, patent law, writing skills and technical aspects. With our strong scientific and technical background, writing experience and patent law knowledge, we strive to deliver the best services. We restrict our services to the scientific and technical area that we are experienced in. Currently these are pharmaceutical, cosmetic, biomedical, medical, chemical and related fields.

Patent drafting is a professional writing of your patent application. After we discuss your invention, we start writing your invention according to the information provided by you and the requirements by USPTO. During the writing, we may contact you several times to better understand your invention. We also send you the draft for review and approval. Depending on the invention, the draft may require additional drawings to illustrate the invention.

Patent Filing

After the patent is professionally drafted, it is the time to file it in USPTO. Whether we drafted the patent for you or you did it yourself or by other drafter, we can assist in filing the application in USPTO. Check the pricing page to know more about the cost of filing that you need to pay as USPTO fees and professional fees.

We can assist in filing:

• Provisional utility patent applications.

• Nonprovisional utility patent applications.

• Design patents.

Patent Prosecution

After the patent application is filed, it will be examined by USPTO patent examiners. During the examination, the claims are usually rejected or objected to. Do not be panic, this is exactly the normal process. The patent application including claims need to be amended or discussed with the examiner to rebut the rejections. There are many professional aspects and critical deadlines that you are encouraged to hire a patent practitioner (like us) to do for you so that you do not loose your invention.

Patent Education

Other than the standard patent services, we are also specialized in patent education. With more than eight years of higher education teaching, we aim to educate the new generations about patents and intellectual property. Our experience in research and education indicates that majority of researchers, inventors and students have a severe lack of knowledge about intellectual properties. Some researchers may not realize the importance of patents until they already disclosed their invention and it is too late to submit the patent application. In this field there are errors that cannot be cured. Therefore, it is very important to get the proper education at the right time.
