Rights!

Myths to Ensure Your Patent Rights!
  • There are so many misconceptions about patents
    which make the decision making even tougher. It
    is always advised to consult an attorney to clear
    any doubts regarding patents as not contacting an
    attorney may result in not filing for a patent
    and eventually losing out on your invention to a
    patent dispute case in the future!

4 Myths Busted Regarding Patents
  • Myth 1 One Can Only Patent Fresh Ideas
  • Myth 2 Your Patent Can Prevent Copy
  • Myth 3 Your Patent is Recognized Worldwide
  • Myth 4 Patent Searches are Effortless

Myth 1 One Can Only Patent Fresh Ideas
  • This is the biggest misconception that people
    have regarding patents. It is very true that a
    new and fresh idea is the ideal candidate for
    filing a patent. However, this does not mean any
    new advancement or improvement is deprived of a
    patent right. For example, someone owns a patent
    regarding the creation of a certain type of sweet
    but you add something to it and change its flavor
    completely. So, this new experiment is liable
    for a patent!

Myth 2 Your Patent Can Prevent Copy
  • If you are thinking to relax after getting your
    patent because no one is going to use it, let us
    brief you with the same. A patent does not stop
    anyone from using your invention, technology or
    anything. Relax! There is a definite solution to
    it as for patent infringement you always have
    the option of filing a patent dispute case. It
    depends greatly on the law system of a country as
    in a nation with a strict law it is less likely
    for the people to copy or use a patent.

Myth 3 Your Patent is Recognized Worldwide
  • Sadly for patent owners, this is just not true!
    Each and every country has its limitations
    against patent rights. This means if you are
    getting a patent for your country, you cannot
    stop a person from using your invention or idea
    in a different country. However, when you
    register a patent under WIPO (World Intellectual
    Property Organization), it protects your patent
    in almost 140 countries.

Myth 4 Patent Searches are Effortless
  • This is not true. Due to the availability of
    patent databases over the internet, a lot of
    people think that searching a patent from the
    database is a cakewalk. However, this is not true
    as it is a complex procedure and requires
    professional help. For example, a patent named
    US29672774A represents something and explains
    its usage. Do you think getting it out a vast
    patent database is easy? It is recommended to
    hire a patent searching expert just as it is
    recommended to hire an attorney for a patent
    dispute case.
