    FAQs Patent Questions

    Patent
    Question: Will the USPTO help me to select a patent attorney or agent to make my patent search or to prepare and prosecute my patent application?

    Answer:

    No. The Office cannot make this choice for you. However, your own friends or general attorney may help you in making a selection from among those listed as registered practitioners on the Office roster. Also, some bar associations operate lawyer referral services that maintain lists of patent lawyers available to accept new clients.




    Question: Can I fax in my patent application?

    Answer:
    No, you can not fax in your patent application. Fax machines do not currently produce a document of sufficient quality to allow the text to be scanned and processed for publication purposes.




    Question: How can I obtain patent application drawing information?

    Answer:
    The Guide for the Preparation of Patent Drawings is currently out of print. This publication, when available, can be ordered from the Superintendent of Documents, U.S. Government Printing Office, Washington, DC 20402, or you may call 202 512-1800. The Guide to Filing A Utility Patent Application also contains information on drawing requirements.
