Infringement Analysis

Infringement analysis can help you identify potential targets for technology transfer and licensing.

A detailed infringement analysis and assertability study are crucial to support your licensing initiatives.

We use both machine searching tools along with the expertise of technical experts to identify the most potential technologies/ products for licensing.

Researchwire complements the efforts of in-house experts by providing new perspectives and opportunities for patent licensing. Our detailed EoU(Examination of Use) claim charts reduce the time needed for review opportunities

IPR Support

The USPTO provides a host of administrative proceedings by which validity of a patent can be challenged.These procedures include Inter Partes Review (IPR), Post-Grant Review (PGR), and Ex Parte Re-examination. IPR was instituted by America Invents Act (AIA) and it replaces the prior proceeding of inter partes re-examination, for which petitions can no longer be filed.

AIA Options
An inter partes review of a patent is a type of administrative trial proceeding before the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) in which a third party has alleged the invalidity of at least one claim of an issued patent.
In recent years, re-examination has been increasingly used as an avenue to invalidate a patent in light of prior arts not known or appreciated at the time of examination.
The proceeding for an IPR is analogous to a shortened litigation. The entire procedure must statutorily be completed within 12 months from the grant of the petition, and six month extension, if required.

What are the benefits?
  • The Jury has highly technical and diverse backgrounds, which makes things easier.

  • IPR is faster and cheaper than going to court.

  • IPR is like a mini trial that is completed in 12-18 months and costs less than a full blown trial.

  • IPR can also be strategic,you can leverage it to enforce the patent owner on how they interpret the patent claims.

Trademark Comprehensive Search

Trademark Comprehensive Search

There is an extremely thin line between success and failure, especially when it comes to choosing a name for a business or brand. A business’s brand name, logo, tagline, label, letter, etc., can be its Trademark, and before finalizing this key aspect of the business’s goodwill, it is critical to perform a comprehensive Trademark search.

A comprehensive Trademark search assesses the prospects of a proposed trademark successfully obtaining registration in a jurisdiction. Under this search, the existing marks are examined to rule out any similar or identical marks. It also helps in establishing the uniqueness and distinctiveness of a mark, which may otherwise be overlooked by an untrained or inexperienced eye.

Researchwire conducts comprehensive trademark searches by carefully examining the national trademarks registry and numerous paid/non-paid databases. Our team of trademark experts conducts an exhaustive analysis of such databases to yield accurate results and prepare detailed search reports with or without an opinion letter from a seasoned attorney analyzing such results.

Trademark watch involves monitoring similar/identical trademarks or potentially infringing marks that are registered or are in the process of registration by third parties. Trademark watch allows trademark owners to identify potential infringers of their mark promptly by keeping track of national trademark offices. Since time is of utmost importance in infringement matters, the earlier such marks are discovered, the more cost-effective and simpler it is for brands.

There are stringent deadlines for filing a notice of opposition in case of infringement, and brand owners need to vigilantly identify such marks and take necessary legal action. Our support team of experienced paralegals keeps a diligent track of such infringing marks and provides tailored monitoring support to clients.
