About this service
The claims define what a patent protects, and they are read in their own way. We go through the claims one by one against the product or process and, where it helps, look at the history of the application before the office. The result is a reasoned comparison that shows the weak points as well as the strong ones.
What is included
- A reading of the claims and of the legal status of the patent in the country
- A comparison of each claim with the product or process
- A look at the record of the application, where it is public
- A written analysis with the options: a licence, a change of design, a challenge, or no action
