Patent Drawings

Ensuring completeness of patent applications

Our patent drawings expertise #

When patent applications are submitted, it’s often necessary to accompany them with drawings that clearly demonstrate the purpose and function of the invention they relate to.

In Europe, drawings are required ‘when necessary for the understanding of the invention’ — which means they’re needed almost every time. Black and white schematic line drawings are required with all patent applications in the US, with the exception of applications for compositions of matter or processes.

We protect: creativity #

It’s important that your drawings are not only accurate but that they follow the proper format. Anything else could cause delays and objections, which will increase your costs. Our IP attorneys in cooperation with our highly skilled technical drawing associates will help you create and submit high-quality, technically correct drawings and speed up the process.

“We have a complete understanding of the drawing regulations for every jurisdiction in which we practice. Preparing drawings to the correct standard and specification is just another part of the complete patent service we offer our clients.”
