Patent Wizard
A.
Purpose of PatentWizard
PatentWizard is a unique software program designed to assist inventor in
drafting and filing a "provisional" patent application with the United
States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) by taking advantage of a relatively
new type of patent application – the "provisional" patent application.
PatentWizard will not assist you in drafting a complete
"formal" patent application.
The provisional patent application provides an inventor
"patent pending" but only for one-year after which it automatically
becomes abandoned. PatentWizard
provides a simple to utilize step-by-step process for guiding inventors through
drafting their provisional patent application.
PatentWizard is designed for use during the early
stages of the invention process when inventors are still determining the
marketability of their invention. The
Neustel-Zimmer Approach to Successful Inventing (included with the PatentWizard
CD and Manual) provides a step-by-step process for inventors desiring to
license or sell their patent rights to an existing company.
Inventors are strongly encouraged to seek at least a review
of their self-drafted provisional patent application by a Patent Attorney prior
to filing with the USPTO. Neustel
Law Offices, LTD will provide a review of your self-drafted provisional patent
application for a flat-fee. After
an inventor has determined that their invention is "marketable", they should
then hire a Patent Attorney to draft a formal patent application for their
invention.
B.
Limitations of PatentWizard & Provisional Patent Applications
There are many limitations with PatentWizard and "provisional"
patent applications that you should familiarize yourself with.
PatentWizard is not designed to replace the advice or service of a
competent Patent Attorney. PatentWizard
will not assist you with drafting the "claims" section that is required for
a formal patent application (claims are not required for a "provisional"
patent application). PatentWizard
is also not designed to assist inventors with drafting a complete "formal"
patent application that typically requires a registered Patent Attorney.
PatentWizard will only assist you with drafting a
"provisional" patent application which provides patent pending for only
one-year. A provisional patent
application by itself can never issue into a "patent".
A provisional patent application is never "examined" by the USPTO for
patentability hence you will never receive an "Office Action" or a
"patent" by only filing a provisional patent application.
A complete formal patent application must be filed within the one-year
period of a provisional patent application to provide an opportunity of
receiving a patent. You should
consult with a Patent Attorney if you have any questions.
C. Created
by Michael S. Neustel – Registered Patent Attorney
PatentWizard was created by Michael S. Neustel to help inventors avoid the
high costs of a Patent Attorney prior to determining the viability of their
inventions. Michael S. Neustel is
an attorney licensed to practice in front of the USPTO.
Michael S. Neustel is the owner of Neustel Law Offices, LTD that assists
individual inventors and businesses in protecting their various intellectual
property rights. You can read

PatentWizard Uses the Relatively New "Provisional" Patent
Applications
PatentWizard is designed to effectively utilize the relatively new type of
patent application – the "provisional" patent application.
It should be remembered that provisional patent applications are not
examined by the USPTO and automatically become abandoned one-year
after the filing date.
Prior to 1995, inventors only had the option of filing a
"formal" patent application which required the very difficult to draft
"Claims". Only a qualified
Patent Attorney can properly draft the Claims for a formal patent application.
It is not recommended for inventors to draft the Claims for a formal
patent application because of the expertise and experience required to properly
draft the Claims.
The provisional patent application provides all of the
legal advantages of a formal patent application without the requirement of the
very difficult to draft "Claims." Individual
inventors are therefore capable of drafting a provisional patent application to
assist them during the early stages of the invention process.
A provisional patent application provides an inventor a "filing date"
and "Patent Pending" for their invention.
E.
Required Hardware and Software
To properly run PatentWizard, you need an IBM compatible 486 or
higher computer with a minimum of 8 megabytes (MB) of memory (RAM).
You will also need Windows 95 or higher along with a VGA monitor or
better. You will also need a hard
disk drive with at least 10 MB of free space along with a CD-ROM drive.
