Thats what we call prior art search :)

Hi, I've been working in the IP industry for over 5 years and have conducted numerous prior art searches and have filed various patent applications with the USPTO. For your project, I would conduct a thorough search on various patent offices as well as in journals and publications. Do let me know if this suits you. Best, Mugdha

Hi, I would like to introduce myself as Balasubramanian. I am basically a mechanical engineer and professionally a patent research engineer. I have handled 200+ searches of different technologies so far and I also have hands on experience in working with patent databases including Micropat, Delphion, Freepatentsonline, USPTO, WIPO, Boliven, etc. I mainly prefer Micropat and Delphion. Since this is the first project from your side, you pay me only if you are satisfied with my work. But i will assure you, that the results will be of high quality. I am pretty sure that all will use only the freely available patent databases. But I will mainly use Micropat and Delphion which are paid databases. Search Procedure: 1. As a first step, I will send you the search strategies and key features after understanding the invention on day one. 2. On the second day I will search on various patent databases including Micropat and Delphion. 3. After that I will search for non-patent literature documents in free databases and other search engines. 4. Documentation of the identified results and downloading of scrutinizing hits and other documents. I assure you that I can deliver it in 5 business days. I am also ready to sign confidentiality agreement with you. Awaiting your positive reply. Kind Regards, Balasubramanian
