More Information: Patent Validity (Invalidity) Search

A Validity Patent Search will determine whether a patent will withstand attack in litigation. Our Validity Patent Search provides clients with an in-depth analysis of patent art that may be used to prove the validity or invalidity of a patent already obtained. Clients only need to provide the patent number and the claims of interest and we will conduct an extensive search of US and foreign patents, publications and technical literature.

Also, a Validity Patent Search determines how useful the patent is in licensing negotiations. A prospective licensee may want to conduct a Validity Patent Search to determine the strength of the patent. Upon receiving the results, the licensee can then adjust its minimum royalty payments according to the findings before entering into the license agreement.

A Validity Patent Search or Invalidity Patent Search is the most extensive search that can be undertaken. If a corporation has a vested interest in invalidating a competitor's patent, it may continue searching until it finds something it feels will accomplish this. Noro IP will usually conduct a full Validity Patent Search utilizing one fully devoted specialist with expertise in the area who will exhaust all areas possible to prove either the patent's invalidity or validity.

Standard and Premium Validity Searches are exactly the same with the exception of the number of claims searched. If the patent in question has 1-20 claims, it qualifies for the Standard search price. If the patent in question has 21 or more claims, it will qualify for the Premium search price.

All Validity Searches undergo Noro IP’s thorough quality assurance checks before they are delivered to our clients.
