So you prepared your own utility patent application to save money. While taking the time and effort to do so is commendable, you really need to have your utility patent application reviewed by an experienced patent attorney (particularly the claims) when you receive a First Office Action from the U.S. Patent Office to make sure your application properly covers your invention. You will also need his/her professional help in responding to the Patent Office. It takes about 2-3 years for a patent attorney to be trained (under the daily supervision of an experienced patent attorney) to properly prepare a utility patent application and prosecute it through the Patent Office to a patent. An inventor such as yourself cannot possibly hope to do it properly first time! The money will be well spent. Keep in mind three principles… the breadth of coverage of an issued patent is what counts… not the fact of having a patent. This is so you maximize the number of devices that violate your patent (get your rightful patent coverage of your invention). The enforceability of an issued patent also counts so you can enforce those rights. Keep your invention CONFIDENTIAL (you can use a Confidentiality Agreement if properly used which is a separate subject) until you consult with a patent attorney about which countries around the world in which you want to get patent protection. It is expensive to get patents and you might say to yourself “I only want/can afford patent protection in my home country”… but keep in mind that some international company might come to you later wanting to patent it in many countries! Preserve your rights to get patents in foreign countries… consult a patent attorney! Note that keeping your invention confidential includes NOT PUTTING YOUR INVENTION ON THE INTERNET. Also, note that you CAN MARKET your invention before your patent issues… just be sure of the ramifications of your marketing activities ahead of time by consulting a patent attorney as I suggested above!

Dakle, ako ste spremni svoj program utility patent za uštedjeti novac. Iako uzimanje vremena i truda da to učinite je pohvalno, vi stvarno trebate imati svoju primjenu komunalnih patenta pregledani od strane iskusnog patenta odvjetnika (posebice tvrdnje) kada dobijete prvi ured Akcija iz SAD-a. Ured za patente da bi bili sigurni vaš zahtjev pravilno pokriva svoj izum. Također ćete trebati njegov / njezin stručnu pomoć u odgovoru na patentnog ureda. To traje oko 2-3 godine za patenta odvjetnik biti osposobljeni (pod dnevnim nadzorom iskusnog patenta odvjetnika) pravilno pripremiti prijavu patenta komunalnih i progon putem patentnog ureda na patent. Izumitelj kao sebe nikako ne može nadati da će to učiniti pravilno prvi put! Novac će biti dobro potrošen. Imajte na umu tri načela… 1. širina pokrića nekog izdao patent je ono što se računa… nije činjenica da je patent. To je tako da bi se povećala broj uređaja koji krši svoj patent (dobili svoj zasluženo patenta pokrivenost svog izuma). Ovršnost od izdala patent također broji tako da možete provesti tih prava. Držite vaš izum POVJERLJIVO (možete koristiti ugovor o povjerljivosti ako se pravilno koristi, što je zaseban predmet) dok se konzultirati s odvjetnikom o patenta koje zemlje diljem svijeta u kojem želite da se patentna zaštita. To je skupo doći patenata i moglo bi se reći za sebe “Ja samo želim / mogu priuštiti patentnu zaštitu u mojoj domovini”… ali imajte na umu da su neki međunarodna tvrtka može doći do vas kasnije želeći ga patentirati u mnogim zemljama! Očuvati svoje pravo da se patenata u stranim zemljama… konzultirati odvjetnika patenta! Imajte na umu da imajući svoj izum povjerljive uključuje ne stavljajući svoj izum NA INTERNETU. Također, note that you CAN MARKET your invention before your patent issues… just be sure of the ramifications of your marketing activities ahead of time by consulting a patent attorney as I suggested above!
