When you invent a new product, the first step is to perform
a patent search. Not only does a patent search
confirm that the invention is patentable (and not patented by
another), it also improves the quality of
your patent application. When your attorney writes your patent
application, it is critical that he or she review the most relevant
prior art. A great
patent can be invalidated in court if important prior art was not considered. Don’t lose a valuable
patent because of a simple oversight.
A patent search opinion by a patent
attorney is also a great sales tool. The best way to persuade investors
and licensees is to show that you
have done your homework and you really own a valuable
property. When they ask for your patent search results, make
sure you can deliver a patent search report from a registered
patent attorney.
The Law Offices of Eric Karich offers an
expedited patent search which takes about 2 weeks to
complete and includes all U.S. patents as well as European
Patent Office (EPO) and Patent Cooperation Treaty (PCT)
international filings. We provide copies of relevant
patents, a
written analysis, and a patentability opinion by a patent
attorney. The cost for a patent search costs $849. To order a patent search,
you may download the Patent
Search Request Form and follow the
instructions.
