Drafting Guidelines and Best Practices
Posted on: October 14, 2014
Only a proper written specification will avoid unnecessary troubles at the examination stage and will get you the desired patent protection.
Before getting started with the specification drafting, it is good to capture the issues raised by existing arts and what we are going to bring as a solution to those issues by our proposed invention.
After identifying the main focus area, the underlying words or terminology representing the main focus area of the proposed invention can be determined and finalized.
Generally, the specification is focussed on the embodiments or technicalities of the invention. However, at times the clients may want the specification to provide holistic view of the proposed invention along with a due importance given to the presentation and guidelines. Hence, while drafting the specification, it is a good practice to provide embodiments and technicalities of the invention along with the holistic view of the invention.
