Patentability Search — Check Before You File
A patentability search checks whether your invention is truly new before you file. In short, we search prior art to see if a similar idea already exists. However, filing without a search can waste time and money on a weak application. Therefore, Prospect Legal runs a careful search and gives you a clear opinion. As a result, you file with confidence or save the cost of a doomed filing.

What is a patentability search, and who needs it?
A patentability search checks if your invention is new and non-obvious. Simply put, we look for prior art that matches your idea. Therefore, you learn if a patent is likely. Above all, you avoid spending on a filing that will fail.
Many inventors need a search for clear reasons. First, before filing a patent application. Next, before investing in an idea or product. Also, when facing a similar competitor. Because a filing costs time and money, a search first makes sense.
