Why You Should Consider Using Patent Prosecution

What is Patent Prosecution

Patent prosecution is the task of applying for a patent with the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO). After receiving a response from USPTO, a follow-up on the application is needed to have the patent to be issued.

When you have an invention, you should consider using patent prosecution. Here are three reasons why:

• By going through patent prosecution, it offers the opportunity for your invention to be protected by law and take legal actions if anyone tries to copy your ideas or designs.
• All claims made during the process of patent prosecution are unbreakable on the application. The applicant loses the permission to debate about certain specifics of the invention or design if the applicant has already made different claims about the function during the patent prosecution.
• Beware to not make your claims too broad. By being too broad, you could have a hard time in getting broad protection.
