Chicago, Illinois ? Every Intellectual Property practice does not include patent law as part of their offerings. This area of the practice requires technical or scientific training and/or experience before they are admitted to practice in the United States Patent Office. At the same time, attorneys are allowed to practice in the United States Trademarks Office and in the litigation of patent and other types of IP disputes. It is important to find a qualified Chicago patent attorney when an issue surrounding the right to use an invention is in question.
A patent gives an inventor of a product or idea the right to use their invention exclusively from a specific period of time. This is typically 20 years from the date of application. Unlike trademarks, which exist between countries, a patent is only valid in the U.S. and the U.S. territories. The enforcement of the patent is important to the inventor since it prevents other companies or individuals from selling, making, or using the product or idea in this country. Once the patent is acquired, it is up to the inventor to enforce the terms of the patent. This refers specifically to what others are not permitted to do with the invention and not what the inventor is permitted to do.
Chicago patent attorney John R. Crossan knows the laws that pertain to patents and which products or ideas may or may not be patented. In addition to the invention of new products, improvements on existing products may also be patented. The laws and guidelines that pertain to patents are very complex. Filing a patent is a time-consuming and expensive process that requires accuracy in order to ensure it is successful. Unsuccessful outcomes would be in failing to get the patent or in getting a patent that does not cover the product or idea for which it was intended.
The majority of inventors turn to a Chicago trademark attorney who is recognized by the USPTO. John R. Crossan is a registered patent attorney that inventors can rely on to file a patent on their behalf and to represent them when necessary before the USPTO.
