PATENT Invalidity Search

Protect, strengthen, and maximize the value of your patent portfolio through our comprehensive patent validity and invalidity search.

What is a patent validity or invalidity search?

A patent validity or invalidity search is conducted to identify prior art references (patent or non-patent literature) that may disclose, and potentially challenge the novel and inventive features claimed by a granted patent. 

For individuals or organizations facing patent infringement suits, finding “killer prior art” that challenges the validity of the patent can be a first line of defense against costly patent litigation. The USPTO provides several mechanisms for validity challenges through PTAB trials such as inter partes review, post-grant review, and others.

A patent validity search can also be a valuable tool in IP strategy. Before investing on patents, either through acquisition or licensing, it is important to assess the validity and enforceability of a patent.

As innovators, there are a myriad of potential legal obstacles to an invention  — from obtaining a patent to bringing the technology to market. As a team focused on developing customized patent search strategies, we partner with you to help you move forward as you develop, commercialize and protect your innovations.
