The Inventor's Guide to Writing Provisional Patent Applications

The Guide contains the exclusive 3-D Method for provisional application writing, which shows you how to write a provisional in 3 easy steps. You will also learn how to shift from inventor-style thinking to patent attorney-style thinking and why this helps.

In the Guide you will learn:

- The purpose of a provisional application and how to make the most of it for your invention.

- The two parts required in a provisional patent application. If you leave one or both out, your application will not be effective.

- Two questions you must answer in your provisional application that help you meet the requirements.

- What to leave out (that many inventors include).

- How to find example provisional applications on file with the Patent Office for inventions in the same area of technology as your invention.

- Why you don’t need to “write like a lawyer.” And why doing so may hurt your application.
