Verispire utilizes a multi-step approach to drafting each utility patent application. This process is initiated by obtaining a comprehensive explanation of the invention form the inventor(s), and Verispire has developed strategies for completing this process as effectively, efficiently, and unobtrusively as possible, such as by utilizing appropriate invention disclosure forms that are tailored to specific technologies, inventor interviews that are designed to minimize or avoid disruption of inventor schedules, etc. Prior to drafting, our teams identify differences between the invention at issue and prior art, and thereby clearly articulate the available scope of protection.
Verispire’s technical experts, who have the appropriate scientific or engineering backgrounds, then draft aspects of the application that involve the technology at issue, and particularly focus on disclosing alternative embodiments that are tailored to foreclose design-arounds by competitors. Our domestic IP advisors complete the application drafting process by preparing relevant portions of each application to ensure a sufficient enforceable scope of protection and consistency with the rules and regulations of the patent office(s) in which the application is to be filed.
