Patent Application Drafting and Filing
IP Procure drafts and files the following documents: provisional and non-provisional patent applications with the US Patent and Trademark Office, international patent applications filed under the Patent Cooperation Treaty, and foreign patent applications under the Paris Convention.
Patent Prosecution
If the patent application filed by the applicant with the USPTO, receives an office action issued by the USPTO rejecting the claims as not novel and/or obvious in view of the prior art, IP Procure conducts a phone interview with the examiner to advance the prosecution of the application and thereafter files a response to the office action.
Trademark Searches
IP Procure conducts a registrability search of the mark to be registered, and issues a registrability opinion advising the client regarding the liklihood of registration of the mark with the USPTO.
Trademark Applicating Filing
IP Procure files trademark applications for marks that applicant’s seeks to register in the USPTO, and files corresponding trademark applications through foreign associates.
Infringement Opinions
We conduct infringement studies to determine if the features of a product or invention read on every element of the claims of unexpired patents, and to determine if a client is potentially free to operate without risk of infringing the identified patents in a particular country.
