Responding to IPO reports
Substantive examination reports
Patent Examiners at the Intellectual Property Office (the Patent Office) will almost always need to raise objections when they first review an application. This is perfectly normal, and it is often possible to overcome the objections by amending the application. Patent Examiners cannot tell you how to amend your application successfully, but we can!
How we can help
We can review the Patent Office report and the documents they cited, and come up with a response (or advise you if we think it will be impossible to make a successful response). We can take over the administration of the case for you, so that future reports come straight to us and we can sort them out.
