Patent Litigation
Exclude Others :: Infringement :: Injunction
Reasonable Royalty :: Damages
A patent for an invention is the grant of a property right to the inventor, issued by the Patent and Trademark Office for a term of 20 years from the date on which the application for the patent was filed in the United States or, in special cases, from the date an earlier related application was filed, subject to the payment of maintenance fees.
A U.S. patent grants the patent owner “the right to exclude others from making, using, offering for sale, or selling” the invention in the United States or “importing” the invention into the United States.
What is granted is not the right to make, use, offer for sale, sell or import, but the right to exclude others from making, using, offering for sale, selling or importing the invention.
Do you own a U.S. Patent?
Is someone making, using or selling your invention without your permission?
If you have a patent granted by the U.S. Government through the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office and you believe that someone or entity is making, using, or selling the invention in the United States without your permission, you may have a patent infringement lawsuit and be entitled to an injunction, reasonable royalties or damages.
