PATENT VALIDATION - Methodology

1.Upon receiving a request from the client for ratifying European Patents in Spain and in Portugal, once we have the NUMBER OF THE PATENT

No further documentation is needed.

We only require the application or publication number and the signed Power of Attorney. We guarantee quick response to all orders with confirmation of receipt sent out the same working day for orders received during office hours. Similarly, if the patent deals with a B2 or any other posterior publication, it is sufficient to indicate this information in the order letter.

2. The client is always clearly informed of the necessary documentation and formal requirements for all filings at the time we confirm receipt of instructions. Our department contains the necessary expertise to foresee all potential requirements. Similarly throughout the process you are always are always informed in a clear and timely manner of any office actions or other requirements arising.

3. For tight deadlines we will advise immediately. We have the ability to react rapidly to late filing requests with a minimum of 24 hours warning for Spain and  48 hours for Portugal, and where the deadline is not possible we will file the necessary deadline extension, at no extra charge . In any case, we ensure rapid response to requests from the client and always within any deadlines set by the client. Where requested actions are not possible or delay cannot be avoided, the client is always informed immediately.

4. We enter the EP in our surveillance system in order to monitor the grant of the European Patent and publication of the B1., we maintain the highest possible level of control using the most reliable software available.

5. In case the patent deals with a B2 or any other posterior publication, we need this information in the order letter.

6. As soon as the grant of the patent is published, we immediately obtain a copy of the document B for its translation. (you do not need to send us anything more).

  • Translation is carried out by one of our highly specialized team of translators, carefully selected according to the subject matter and source language of the patent.

  • Once completed, translations are doubly checked.

  • Finally one third linguistic control of the title and claims is done by native speakers of the original language but also fluent Spanish speakers.

  • Translations are maintained on file in electronic format to allow future access at any time by the applicant.

7. The validation documents are prepared and filed in due time, and the client is advised that filing has taken place. Subsequently the invoice is issued and the official receipts are enclosed.

  • The invoice clearly discloses official fees, expenses and professional fees.

  • Once filed, the patent validation is monitored and, as soon as the publication in the Spanish Official Gazette occurs, the client is informed about the publication number of the validation in Spain, and a copy of the T3 document with publication of the patent is forwarded to the client at no charge as soon as it is made available by the Patent Office, if the client wishes  the T3 document can be forwarded by email to avoid delays.

  • If the client has requested that we take responsibility for the payment of fees, we send timely reminders before the respective expiry dates, in case you uses an external system for the payments, but any notification that we receive from Spanish Patent Office regarding the non payment in term, we will send without cost .

8. All records relating to patent validations are stored in double copy, in both electronic and paper files to safeguard against system problems. Multiple security copies of all electronic records are kept both on and off site to ensure absolute security of all records.

  • Our monitoring system provides timely warning of all deadlines enabling client to be informed and take decisions well in advance of any necessary actions.  If we receive no response from the client to our warning communications we continue to communicate this warning through all possible channels until an answer is received from the client.

  • If there is any doubt we always apply for a deadline extension.
