Preliminary Patent

I’m going to answer the question: “what is a preliminary patent?” So in the United States, there’s something called a provisional patent application. It’s not a patent. It’s an application which is a holding place for you to preserve your right in an invention. It must be followed-up with a full patent application. So there isn’t actually anything that’s a preliminary patent, but there is an application process that has a provisional and then a non-provisional. To find out more, contact me. I’m Wayne Carroll at Inspired Idea Solution Law Firm.
