Do you apply by yourself or by an agency?
Many inventors know that they need to apply for patent protection after they invented the technology, but they always feel that they are inventors when they apply. No one knows their technology better than they do, so they are more inclined to apply for patents themselves, and it will cost a certain amount of money to apply to an agency, and they will feel that it is not worth it.
However, the fact is that many inventors apply for their own patents, often with unsuccessful applications or successful applications but incomplete protection, and can not effectively safeguard their rights when infringed.
There are two main reasons for the above situation. The patent application process is relatively complex, which generally includes a series of issues such as writing, submitting the application, replying to the review opinions, possibly involving re examination, etc., and the time of paying fees in the application and after authorization. Any wrong step will lead to the unsuccessful patent application. In addition, patent inventors are very familiar with their own patented technology, but most inventors have no knowledge of the patent law or just know a little about it. Therefore, they always write patent documents from the perspective of their own invention technology, which may be the first. The writing is too comprehensive and detailed, leading to the leakage of core technology, and it is easy to be imitated by others after the patent is published; Second, the fear of technical disclosure leads to no innovation in technology, which fails to meet the requirements of patent application, and finally the application fails.
So to sum up, professional personnel are still required to do professional things, just like driving, but not necessarily knowing the congestion of each road section. A professional agency, with professional process personnel, is very familiar with each step of the application process, because process personnel have to hand in dozens of hundreds of patent documents every day. More important is the professional agent team. The agent company will have professional agents in different industries. After understanding the inventor's technology, the agent will write patent application documents according to his knowledge of patent law and experience, which can not only obtain comprehensive protection, but also improve the patent authorization rate.

Can a patent application be 100% successful?
First of all, no one or company can guarantee the success of patent application, especially invention patent. When applying for a patent, there is no guarantee because a professional patent search is required before the patent application, and the data within six months before the search date cannot be retrieved. That is, for example, if a patent technology is applied for within six months before the inventor's application, the patent agent cannot retrieve it, which will lead to the unsuccessful patent application. Therefore, the inventor must remember not to publish the invention technology in a paper or any other form before applying for a patent. This will not only affect the patent examination, but also lead to the application for a patent in advance by some schemers, leading to the failure of the technology they applied for.
Beijing Huazhi Zeming Intellectual Property Agency Co., Ltd. has introduced the way of guarantee application to share the risk of patent application with the inventor. The patent agent will judge the success rate of the inventor's technology licensing according to his writing experience.
In addition, utility model patents and design patents were all successfully authorized in our previous applications. Compared with invention patents, these two patents are relatively simple, so we are entrusted to apply for utility model or design patents, and there is no need to worry about successful authorization.
