Clearance Search

A Clearance Search compares a PRODUCT description or marketing materials to the claims portion of all existing patents in the USPTO database.

Normally this search service is performed when a company has a new product and wants to determine if someone else has already patented a similar product.

You will enter the information about your product into our web-based search system. Usually within one business day, you will receive email notification that the search results have been completed and are ready for your review.

The patent research results will list potentially relevant patents together with copies of those patents for your review.

Examples

  • A company created a new answering machine that responds with different messages based on the identity of the caller and wants to check whether a similar design has been patented.
  • A company developed a new kitchen product that makes it possible to measure all ingredients using one piece of equipment but wants to check whether a similar patent already exits.

You may register and begin using this patent search service by selecting the button below. You will be charged $2,000.00 plus any applicable sales tax for each search when using a credit card. Corporate license is available.

Contact us for details or call 972-419-8000 to discuss your Clearance Search.
