March 7, 2008, Newsletter Issue #106: Contents of a Patent Search Report

Tip of the Week

When you hire a professional to conduct a patent search for your invention, you should receive a patent search report that can be reviewed with your patent lawyer or agent.

Your patent search report should contain:
- a description of your invention written by the researcher to confirm they understand the nuances of your invention
- a list of the patents discovered during the search
- prose that explains the relevance of the found patents and their references
- a list of classes and subclasses searched
- a list of examiners consulted.
