If you decide to attempt to determine whether your invention is unique, novel and nonobvious, it would be beneficial to explore various technical documents to help frame the keywords that will be needed to describe your invention. We have provided links to various journals and other technical publication sources that will assist you in this effort. We have also provided links to directories and other business information sources that may also help you in developing your own trademark search. While we hope you find this information informative and useful, we strongly recommend that you engage the services of a professional searcher to conduct all patent searches and all trademark searches before you undertake the filing of a patent application or a trademark application. A schedule of our fees for conducting such services is provided for your reference.
