Reasons to get a patent search:
A patent search offers you a great deal of useful information. A patent search report may tell you if your company is indeed the first to invent the best new kitchen gadget, toy, or composite jet engine fan blade. A good patent search may help you decide whether to invest more in the prototype, manufacturing equipment, orders, or patent application.
A patent search report can help your patent attorney write a patent application. Your patent application can state why your invention is an improvement over what was found in the patent search report.
You can also ask a patent attorney to write a patentability opinion based on a patent novelty search report. A patentability opinion written by a patent attorney states how likely they think you may or may not be able to get a patent on your invention based on the prior art found in the patent search report.
A patent attorney may also use the results of a patent non-infringement search to form a non-infringement opinion. This type of patent attorney opinion may help your company decide on whether to invest in a new product in light of other patents it may or may not infringe when making, using or selling that product.
The US Patent & Trademark Office (USPTO) may take several years to examine your patent application. Having a look at this prior art (older inventions and patents) ahead of time allows your business to make different decisions on how best to proceed with its goals.
