What Is A Patent Opinion?
A patentability opinion is an analysis of potential patent claims done by a qualified patent attorney. Getting this opinion from a registered patent attorney can help an individual or company decide if they should proceed with the patent process. It’s a cost-effective way to make an informed decision, compared to investing in preparing, filing, and prosecuting a patent application without researching existing patents and patent applications that are publicly available.
What Does A Patentability Opinion Cover?
A patent attorney creates a report to assess whether the invention meets the standards set by the U.S. Patent and Trademarks Office (USPTO) for patent eligibility. These standards include novelty, usefulness, and non-obviousness. Thus, the patentability opinion reviews whether the invention meets all or some of these requirements.
