Frequently Asked

Questions

Frequently Asked

Questions

Is my idea patentable?

We offer an optional patentability assessment, including a patent search and anticipation analysis, during which our attorneys will evaluate your invention against existing patents and prior art to determine whether it meets the USPTO standards for novelty. A non-obviousness analysis may be added for an additional fee.

What type of patent do I need?

That depends on what you’re protecting. If you’re safeguarding how something works, a utility patent may be appropriate. If it’s the look or design of a product, a design patent is likely best. For early-stage ideas, filing a provisional patent application can secure your filing date while giving you time to develop. We’ll help you choose the right strategy based on your goals and timeline.

How do I protect my idea before it’s filled?

Do not disclose your invention publicly.
