ORDERING A SEARCH
Which Patent Search is Best for You?
The first step in filing for a patent search is to determine which search type best fits your needs.
SearchQuest Patents offers 4 options. They are:
1. USPTO Patent Search (Only) – This patent search is limited to the United States Patent and Trademark Office (“USPTO”) files only.
2. WIPO Patent Search (Only) – This patent search focuses on the World Intellectual Property Organization (“WIPO”) files. It’s the equivalent of an international search.
3. Product Search (Only) – This search consists of non-patented products already being sold anywhere in the world . We also refer to this as a “Product Search”.
4. Comprehensive Search (all 3 above for one flat price) – This search encompasses all three of the above searches and offers the best bang for your buck. We offer the Comprehensive Search at a Discounted, flat rate.
What Do You Need to Submit for a Search?
In order to file for a search to be done on your idea, you need to be able to provide the searcher with details. Those details need to include some type of illustration, which can be submitted in a couple of formats.
(a) take a digital photograph of your invention (if your invention has already been reduced to physical form)
(b) draw a sketch of your invention if it hasn’t yet been reduced to physical form and then convert the drawing to digital form by scanning it.
PDF or JPG/JPEG format is required, Rough sketches are acceptable if that’s all you have. Just be sure to label any parts/components that you can, especially if those labels help to better describe your product and what it does.
There will be a portion of the submission form where you get to provide a detailed written description of your invention. The more detail you provide at that point, the better. Keep in mind, you aren’t going to be graded on any of the information you submit, so don’t worry about grammar and punctuation!
We know thatEnglish teachers everywhere are rolling their eyes. But sufficient content is very important, so try to be as descriptive as possible. Remember, our searches have never seen this before, and can’t read your mind. You need to help them “see” what you’re talking about so they can do the best search possible on your behalf.
How to Submit Your Search
1. Click on the button corresponding to the search option you’ve chosen.
2. You will be prompted to acknowledge your search or given opportunity to upgrade to a comprehensive search. A credit card will be required to proceed. Payments are processed securely.
You do not need a PayPal account to complete a PayPal payment. If you don’t have one, use the left-handed side of the PayPal form to enter your credit card information.
Once processed, you will receive an acknowledgment of payment via email. The charge will reflect being made to FLC LLC d/b/a FLeCusa International.
3. Once the payment is completed a form will be displayed. You should use that form to complete your purchase and submit your information to us. This form will be what ultimately ends up in the hands of the searcher.
What to Keep in Mind As You Complete the Form
You will want to take the time to verify that your contact information is correct. This will be the only information the searcher receives and he/she may need to contact you to request additional information. Be very sure they have the means to do so. We’re serious, check it at least three times. The information regarding your invention needs to be as complete as possible. The written description should describe the photo or drawing that is being submitted or delivered to us. Again, content matters more than grammar.
When you have completed the form and filled in the “captcha” code which will appear at the bottom of the form, you should click the “submit” button. This will transmit your information to our order processing department. All of the information you provide is considered CONFIDENTIAL and will not be shared or sold to any person or organization.
