Our patent drafting process is designed to ensure that every aspect of your invention is meticulously captured in the patent application.
Invention Disclosure:
Our team will work closely with you to understand the intricacies of your invention. We'll gather all the necessary information, including technical specifications, design details, and any other relevant documentation. We'll conduct a comprehensive prior art search. This step ensures that your invention is unique and distinct from existing technologies or products.
Drafting the Patent Application:
Based on the information gathered and the results of the prior art search, our experts will begin crafting a well-structured patent application. The document will include detailed descriptions, drawings (if required), claims, and any necessary legal language to ensure the broadest protection possible.
Review and Collaboration:
Before finalizing the patent application, we encourage open communication with our clients. Your input and feedback are invaluable in fine-tuning the document to ensure accuracy and completeness.
Filing the Patent Application:
Once the patent application is ready, we will assist you in navigating the complex filing process with the relevant patent office. Our goal is to streamline this process, reducing the chances of unnecessary delays or rejections.
Types of Patent Applications
Provisional Patent Application:
A provisional patent application is a voluntary document that can be filed to establish a priority date for an invention or idea. It is used when the invention is still in the early stages and can be described as a basic idea on paper. The provisional patent specification helps to establish the novelty and inventiveness of the invention or idea.
Non-Provisional Patent Application:
A complete patent application is a comprehensive document that is filed to fully secure an invention or idea. It includes a detailed description of the invention, it's working in the best mode, and the new and inventive features (known as claims). This type of application does not claim priority from any other document or patent application.
Convention Patent Application:
A convention patent application is filed to claim priority from a previous patent application filed in one or more convention countries. To obtain convention status, the applicant must file the patent application within 12 months from the date of the first filing of a similar patent application in the convention country.
PCT International Patent Application:
The Patent Cooperation Treaty (PCT) allows applicants to seek international patent protection for their inventions. By filing one international patent application under the PCT, applicants can seek protection in 153 countries worldwide. The PCT application does not grant an international patent but provides a streamlined process for a patent application in multiple countries simultaneously. Applicants can enter various countries within 30/31 months from the filing date of the PCT patent application..
PCT-National Patent Application :
Following the PCT international phase is the PCT national patent application. Applicants must file a national phase patent application in each designated country to seek patent protection within the prescribed time under the PCT, which is 30/31 months from the priority date. In the case of a national phase application, the applicant must file it by 30 or 31 months prior date or the international patent application date, whichever is earliest.
Divisional Patent Application: :
When a patent application includes and makes claims for multiple innovations, the applicant may partition the application into one or more separate patent applications and submit each one as necessary for the individual inventions. Because it is being divided from its parent patent application, this kind of patent application is known as a divisional patent application.
