Patent Proofreading

Allow your internal resources to focus on strategic concerns and outsource your patent proofreading to Cardinal.

A Cardinal paralegal and legal assistant collaborate to proofread the issued patent. The paralegal reads the issued application as filed and subsequently amended; the legal assistant reads concurrently on the issued patent.

If errors are identified (e.g., typographical, clerical, etc.) in the issued patent, a Cardinal paralegal prepares a Patent Proofreading Form citing applicant and examiner errors, and, when applicable, prepares a Certificate of Correction citing examiner errors only.

If no errors are identified in the issued patent, the legal assistant notifies the client accordingly.

While Cardinal’s professionals are proofreading your patent, you are freed up to put your issued patent to use.
