Provisional patent Application in Jacksonville

Provisional Patent Application Protect your work now, complete your patent later Provisional Patent Application A provisional patent application is a type of patent application that allows a patentee to file a patent application for an invention without submitting a formal claim, oath, statement, or information disclosure statement. Before filing a full patent application, the inventor can temporarily protect the idea for a year, during which time they can test the market, apply for funding, and make any necessary changes to their invention. Filing a provisional patent application is a low-cost and low-risk way for inventors to protect their rights to their inventions. Inventors will also be able to use the term “patent pending” for their inventions to help discourage others from copying or stealing their ideas. However, it is important to note that provisional patent applications are not granted patents and do not confer statutory rights or protection. To obtain full patent protection, a full patent application must be filed within one year of the filing date of the provisional patent application. If you’re an inventor or entrepreneur with a great idea and looking for an inexpensive way to protect it, consider filing a provisional patent application.
