This search is designed to assist a qualified attorney in providing advice to his or her client on infringement avoidance of in-force patents. With a product description or technical disclosure, we analyze the claims of all unexpired patents within the subject area that may be of interest.The search report is usually 5 to 20 pages and includes a restatement of the subject features under investigation, a listing and description of the classes and subclasses searched, a listing of all keywords and Boolean logic used, the names and telephone numbers of examiners contacted, and a brief but detailed discussion of each reference. The report has a table that maps each reference to a specific subject feature and directs you to the relevant claim(s) in a reference, and shows the assignee at the time of issuance. We also include paper or electronic copies of the most pertinent patents and technical publications identified during the search. For legal protection, confidentiality is ensured. |
