Pre-grant oppositions are a vital tool for ensuring that patents are only granted for truly novel and non-obvious inventions. Properly preparing and managing a pre-grant opposition involves a detailed understanding of the patent application, gathering compelling evidence, and following procedural requirements. At SciTech Patent Art, we provide comprehensive support for preparing and filing pre-grant oppositions, helping our clients navigate the process to effectively challenge patent applications and protect their interests.
- Purpose: The purpose is to ensure that patents are only granted for inventions that truly meet the criteria for patentability and to prevent the grant of patents that might unfairly limit competition or public access to technology.
- Supporting Evidence:
- Prior Art: Provide evidence of prior art that demonstrates that the invention is not novel or is obvious.
- Technical Arguments: Present arguments showing that the application does not meet the technical requirements for patentability.
