If you have not already considered your filing strategy, some of the most important decisions in the patenting process must be made already during the first 12 months from the filing of your first application (the period called the priority year). Therefore, you should be able to answer questions from us such as:
- Do you wish a novelty search performed by a patent authority, and if so, which authority?
- Has the invention been fully documented or are you going to carry out additional experiments and possibly file additional applications?
- Is the application to be filed in the US now or later?
- In which countries do you want patent protection?
Our task as advisors is to provide you with the necessary information enabling you to make the decisions in the process best suited to your patent position. Contact one of our IPR experts for more information or fill out this contact form with your enquiry and we will get back to you as soon as possible.
