FAQs Patent Questions
Question:Are there any organizations in my area which can tell me how and where I may be able to obtain assistance in developing and marketing my invention?
Answer: Yes. In your own or neighboring communities you may inquire of such organizations as chambers of commerce and banks. Many communities have locally financed industrial development organizations, that can help you locate manufacturers and individuals who might be interested in promoting your idea.
Question:Why was PSIPS created?
Answer:
Mega information is stored and retrieved via PSIPS because it is too large to publish elsewhere.
Question:Will the USPTO help me to select a patent attorney or agent to make my patent search or to prepare and prosecute my patent application?
Answer:
No. The Office cannot make this choice for you. However, your own friends or general attorney may help you in making a selection from among those listed as registered practitioners on the Office roster. Also, some bar associations operate lawyer referral services that maintain lists of patent lawyers available to accept new clients.

A patent protects your invention.
A patent for an invention is a grant of property rights by the U.S. Government through the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office. The patent grant excludes others from making, using, or selling the invention in the United States. The terms "Patent Pending" and "Patent Applied For" are used to inform the public that an application for a patent has been filed. Patent protection does not start until the actual grant of a patent. Marking of an article as patented, when it is not, is illegal and subject to penalty.
