SHEET 2A — PATENTS

Patent Filing & Prosecution

From a first disclosure to a granted patent, across India, UK, USA, Canada and Australia — provisional filings, complete specifications, PCT applications, and everything examiners ask for in between.

What's covered

Utility and design patents.

1 Prior art search

We search granted patents and published applications across the jurisdictions you care about, so you know how novel your invention actually is before drafting starts.

2 Provisional application

A provisional filing secures an early filing date while the complete specification is still being finalised — useful when timing matters more than a finished draft.

3 Complete specification & claims

The complete specification and claims are drafted with the examiner's likely objections in mind, not just a description of the invention.

4 National & PCT filing

Filed directly in a single country, or through the PCT route when protection is needed in several jurisdictions at once, with national phase entry handled where required.

5 Examination & office actions

We track examination reports and respond to objections within statutory deadlines, explaining each objection in plain terms before we reply on your behalf.

6 Grant & renewal

Once granted, annuity and renewal payments are tracked for the life of the patent so protection doesn't lapse.
