Prosecuting Your Patent Application: Guiding Your Invention to Grant

Prosecuting a patent application is a critical process that involves navigating the interactions between applicants, their representatives, and the patent office. This journey includes responding to objections and making necessary amendments to ensure your invention secures patent protection.

At Robertson IP, we guide you through each step of this intricate process. Our founder, Christopher Robertson, is a former patent office examiner who understands the system inside and out. This unique perspective allows us to anticipate what needs to be addressed and modified to achieve a successful grant.

The Patent Prosecution Process:

Filing the Application: We begin by submitting your patent application to the patent office, ensuring all required documents and descriptions are meticulously prepared.
Examination: The patent office reviews your application, assessing the novelty, inventive step, and industrial applicability of your invention.
Responding to Objections: It’s common for the patent office to raise objections or request additional information. Our team will carefully analyse these objections and craft precise responses to address any issues.
Amendments: If necessary, we will suggest and implement amendments to your application to align with patent office requirements and overcome objections.
Communication: Throughout the prosecution process, we keep you informed of every decision and action required. We’ll clearly explain the choices you need to make and their implications, ensuring you’re always in control.
Grant: Once all objections are resolved and the application meets the necessary criteria, the patent office will grant your patent, providing you with exclusive rights to your invention.

Our deep understanding of the patent system, from both the applicant and examiner perspectives, enables us to efficiently navigate the prosecution process. We aim to secure your patent grant as smoothly and swiftly as possible, protecting your innovation and maximising its commercial potential.

Choose Robertson IP for expert guidance through the patent prosecution process. We’re committed to turning your inventive ideas into granted patents, providing the support and knowledge you need every step of the way.

Unlocking the Value of Patents

Investing in research, development, and marketing is crucial, whether you’re an individual with an idea or an established enterprise, and patents play a pivotal role in protecting these investments.

While often viewed as intangible assets, patents have the remarkable ability to generate substantial revenue streams and can be leveraged just like tangible assets. For instance, by securing patents for novel concepts, businesses can effectively deter competitors from encroaching on specific technical domains, providing a strategic edge in the market.
