Step 3

Full Patent

We draft and file a full non-provisional patent application for you, to try to get your invention patented

Basic Summary

In order to get a patent granted, you have to file a full patent application at the patent office.

In American patenting, this is referred to as a non-provisional patent application.

Once filed, this goes in the queue at the patent office and is ultimately apportioned to a single patent office examiner.

An examination process then begins where the patent office examiner searches the ‘claims’ of your patent application. If any of the claims are deemed to be patentable, then you can patent your invention.

This process requires a skilled patent practitioner because drafting the claims, getting the best patent protection for you and navigating the examination process takes skill and experience.

Going through the examination phase can take years, but at SHIINE®, we know how to shirt-circuit the process and get your results in just weeks. If all goes well, this could lead to you getting accelerated patent protection at multiple patent offices.

SERVICE AT THIS STEP

LightSpeed PerfectPatent™

Our LightSpeed PerfectPatent™ service is a ground-breaking service where we draft, file and prosecute to patent a full non-provisional patent application for you, and get your official patent office results in just weeks, rather than years.

How It Works

1. Filing at the UK Patent Office First

One of our patent practitioners will draft your full non-provisional patent application and file it for search and examination at the UK Patent Office (UKIPO) first, even if your main aim is to get American patent protection. The reason is this- if you get your patent allowed at the UKIPO, you can get free accelerated patent processing at many other patent offices, including the USPTO! (This can lead to you getting your US patent granted quicker, and for less cost).

On top of that, the UKIPO is not only one of the best patent offices in the world, it’s also many times faster than the USPTO, often giving you official patent office results only 4-8 weeks from when we file for you, with free acceleration. This is a huge advantage of using our system, especially if you’re an American inventor trying to get US patent protection.

2. Prosecution To Patent

Sometimes your claim for patent is allowed straight away by the patent office. If not, your patent practitioner will respond accordingly throughout the examination phase, to try to get you the absolute best patent protection possible. This often involves amending the claims to try to get them allowed for patent, or providing responses to the patent office examiner to argue why your patent should be allowed despite the ‘prior art’ the patent office examiner found in their own patent search.

3. Claims Allowed!

The key moment in the process is when the UKIPO patent office examiner deems claim(s) in your patent application to be allowable for patent. Claims being ‘allowed’ is the pre-cursor to your patent application being granted for patent, and means the examiner deems you’ve claimed an invention concept that is new, inventive, and that can be granted for patent.
Once an important claim has been allowed, we will work to make sure a whole claimset (ie all claims) are allowable for patent, in readiness for you potentially filing those same claims at multiple patent offices and getting patent protection perhaps in America and other countries/territories. We know how to streamline the process to make this happen.
And having your claims allowed for patent by the UK Patent Office is key for another reason, because once this has happened, it opens up the possibility of free accelerated patent processing at the USPTO and almost every other major patent office in the world via an agreement called the Patent Prosecution Highway.

4. Free Accelerated Processing At Multiple Patent Offices

The UKIPO’s Patent Prosecution Highway (PPH) agreements with numerous patent offices worldwide allow for free accelerated patent processing at those other patent offices if your claim for patent is deemed allowable by the UKIPO. Not only this, but if your invention is deemed patentable by the UKIPO, it’s highly likely to be deemed patentable at first time of asking at those other patent offices when we file at them for you via the PPH, including the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).
In other words, using SHIINE® ENTERPRISE and The Inventor’s Journey™, you can leverage the speed and quality of our home patent office, (the UKIPO), to set you up for far easier, quicker, and cheaper patenting in America and many other territories, including Canada, Australia, New Zealand, and many other powerful economies such as Japan, South Korea, Germany, etc.

5. Deadlines For Filing At Other Patent Offices

As mentioned, once your invention is allowed for patent at the UKIPO, it opens up the possibility for free accelerated processing at many different patent offices, including the USPTO. But The Inventor’s Journey™ system is fast, and once your invention has been deemed allowable for patent at the UKIPO, it may be worth holding back just for now on filing at those other patent offices. There are several reasons for this:
First of all, you have 12 months within which to file at those other patent offices from your first filing date. Your first filing date will tend to be the provisional patent application we drafted and filed for you at step 2 of The Inventor’s Journey™. So you have time. And since we aim to get you through all 8 steps of The Inventor’s Journey™ within 12 months of your provisional patent application filing date, it opens up the opportunity, once your claims have been allowed at the UKIPO, to hold off on your patent filing at other territories, and instead focus on moving ahead with the advanced product design and prototyping steps that come next, followed by the launch of your invention project. 
In a best case scenario, in step 8 of The Inventor’s Journey™, (Invention Launch), you may be able to fund your patent filing at those other patent offices by crowdfunding your invention project, or successfully licensing your invention, all within your 12 month deadline for filing at those other patent offices. There’s also the possibility of filing a PCT application to extend your deadline for filing at other patent offices by another 18 months.
We can help advise you on all these issues so the best decision can be made for your project.

TESTIMONIALS

Real Results from Real Inventors

…Jethro’s time, dedication, honesty, and professionalism to getting a thorough understanding of [my invention] has been unmatched…
Sandra
Inventor
…results back from the UK Patent Office in 18 days, and, best of all, my claim 1 was allowed! Jethro’s service came through with everything he promised and more.
Giuseppe
Inventor

I spent over $1000 to get a patent search elsewhere. It was a real disappointment. Not even thorough. Watch Deadly Mistake #2 [Bad Patent Search]. It will save you a fortune.

Bob
Inventor
Jethro helped me achieve stronger, more robust patents in both the US and the UK… I highly recommend starting with him before turning to a US attorney.
Tom
Inventor
My only regret is that I didn’t find Jethro and the Inventor’s Journey sooner! Jethro is astute. He also educates the inventor through each step. Outstanding!
Denise Davis
Inventor
The value of this service cannot be underestimated …the PerfectPatent Search has yielded excellent results which I couldn’t be more thankful for.
Pedro Benitez
Inventor
Jethro and the Perfect Patent Journey has been nothing but First Class. He is definitely my ‘partner’ and shows he genuinely care about my complete Success.
