Patents

What can be patented? How do I draft a patent application?

A patent is an intellectual property title which protects technical inventions, technical solutions to technical issues. A patent contains a detailed description of the innovation, and a set of claims that defines where the right-holder's rights begin and end. These rights must cover the various different angles competitors may try to use to circumvent the patent. The idea is to anticipate any potential changes or tweaks you may make to your invention over the course of the patent's validity period (20 years), which is why it is so crucial to have an expert draft your patent.
