Find Information About Your Patents

What types of information should you know about your patents?

  • Status – know whether your patent is active, expired or lapsed due to non-payment of fees
  • Fee Payment Status – find out when your next annuity or maintenance fee is due, or if it’s overdue
  • Current Owner – know who is listed as the current owner/assignee of the patents

Why should you look up this information about your patents?

  • Due Diligence – don’t wait until after the deal closes to realize all the payments are overdue, or even worse, that the patents have been allowed to lapse
  • Budgeting/Scheduling – know when payments are due and which payments are due
