INVENTIONS AND TRADEMARKS EXPERT ASSESSMENT

The Russian patent law contemplates two types of expert assessment pursuing different goals. The first one establishes IP rights, the second one enables to establish their infringement.

Examination of patent/trademark applications (official patentability/registrability examination) is an administrative procedure executed by ROSPATENT (Russian Patent Office) in order to establish compliance or non-compliance of the applied subject-matter to the patentability/registrability standards. The result is an issued Letters Patent/Trademark Certificate or refusal of legal protection.

Patent Infringement analysis (patent forensic examination, patent-&-technical examination) is an investigation aimed to establish the actual unauthorized use of patent/trademark by third parties. Such examination is carried out by independent experts and registered patent attorneys.
