Frequently asked questions
What do you need from me?, to register an invention?
A sketch is enough to get you started, a short description and, if necessary, a sample. We will discuss everything else in conversation.
How long does it take to get a patent??
The examination procedure before the DPMA or EPO typically takes several years. However, you should secure the registration date – and thus your priority – immediately. Anyone who needs enforceable protection more quickly, can also create a utility model.
Can I show my invention before registering??
no, In principle not with patents. Any publication before the filing date may destroy the novelty. Discussions with third parties should only take place with a confidentiality agreement.
Do I have to come to the office for a consultation??
no. We advise at our locations, via video or telephone – whatever suits you.
