Description of Assistance
The two types of patent assistance we offer are... "Provisional Patent Application Assistance" and "Full Patent Application Assistance".
Below are descriptions for each of the types of assistance we offer.
What is a Provisional Patent Application?
A provisional patent application is about one thing. It is about the thing we call "time". The provisional patent application is like having extra time.
Let me explain. Suppose two individuals are working on the same invention idea and they both file their applications with the Patent Office on the same day. One of them is received at 9:00am and the other at 9:01am. Guess who, assuming a patent is eventually awarded, is going to get the patent? Let me tell you. The one that received the 9:00am time stamp from the Patent Office is going to be the one that is awarded the patent because they beat the other inventor to the finish line. It is first come first serve!
The provisional patent assistance option is a very prudent one to use when your resources are temporarily limited. This option will afford you an entire year to get your finances in order and to further develop your idea without the fear of losing it to another person or corporation.
What must be understood about this option is that a PPA (provisional patent application) will expire at the end of 12 months unless it is followed up with a full patent application. This will not be seen as a draw back if you keep your eyes on the big picture....your financial resources! Using this option will give you protection while you take time to make a calculated decision concerning filing a full patent application. It is the best insurance a person could get in this type of situation. You will get your time-stamp with the USPTO and some breathing room to get your finances in order.
What is a Full Patent Application?
A full patent application is exactly what it is called. It is the full application required by the Patent Office to begin processing your idea through their system in order to determine if it warrants patent protection.
There is MAJOR time and work that we put into the preparation of your full patent application. We make sure it is done thoroughly and correctly. The complexity of your idea or design determines the amount of time it will take us to prepare your paperwork but an average time is 30 days.
You can be sure of this, when you choose this option, everything you need to file for full patent protection will be done. You will be on your way to becoming a legitimate inventor.
If you are a little nervous or uncertain, "Fear not"...we are here to help you! Please don't let a little uncertainty rob you of what just might be one of the ways God wants to cause you to prosper.
