Progressive Solutions for Protecting your Invention or Discovery
Experts recommend an inventor file a patent as soon as they can convert their idea into an invention. A patent can be granted to a person of any age, race, or gender who invents or discovers any new and useful process, machine, composition of matter, or valuable enhancement. The invention must be new and novel.
A patent can only be obtained by the person that engages in the act of inventing or discovering. The property right is granted for a limited time of twenty years. They have the right to exclude others from making, using, selling, or importing their invention within the US and its territories. It is worthy to note that a patent cannot be granted for in eligible subject matter, an abstract idea, law of nature, or natural phenomena.

‘Patent infringement’are two words that any inventor doesn’t want to hear. It means proving to a court of law that a unique invention is their brainchild.

Finding a patent agent near you with expertise in your line of research can be an uphill task. Ensuring the patent documents you submit to protect your invention or discovery without any gaps that anyone can leverage for their benefit is essential.
