Former USPTO Patent Examiner offering prior art patent searching and claim review to assist with:
- Claim Validity
- Inventive Concept Review
- Patent Landscape
- Information Disclosure Statement (IDS) references
- Research and Development (R&D) refinement
Consultation Services involve discussions on how to conduct a prior art search for your invention/product to assist in determination as to whether you should file an application for patent, as well as strategies for searching for documentation of patents/inventions/products that may already exist.
-
Custom searches can be undertaken based on your needs concentrating on published U.S. patent literature (granted patents and pending applications), with the option to expand to include international as well as various non-patent literature. Useful for compiling and submitting of an information disclosure statement (IDS), novelty, patentability, claim validity, etc.
-
Services also include proofing of claim language in order to review for formalities and concerns with claim language prior to and during patent application prosecution with the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office - with the intent of saving you time and money by pre-empting issues patent examiners commonly "reject" applications for.
