I will do a patent prior art search with a claim chart
Lawyer and engineer for patent search, contracts and legal research
About this Gig
Planning to file a patent, or need to know if an existing one holds up? I'll search the prior art properly and give you a report you can check and rely on.
I'm a lawyer (LL.B.) and an electrical engineer (B.Tech, EEE), and I worked as a Law Clerk at the Supreme Court of India. I read both the claims and the technology.
What you get:
- Worldwide patent and published-application search (Google Patents, Espacenet, USPTO), plus key technical literature where relevant
- The closest references, ranked, with the exact passages that matter
- A claim chart against the best references (Standard and Premium)
- A search log with keywords, classification codes and date limits, so the search can be repeated
- A plain-English summary of what the results mean
Strongest fields: electrical, electronics, software, telecom, sensors and devices.
If your invention is confidential, message me first and I'll sign your NDA.

FAQ
Is this a legal opinion on patentability?
No. It's a professional search and analysis. Your patent attorney or agent gives the opinion.
Which countries do you search?
Worldwide patent databases, in English and machine-translated text.
Can you check whether an existing patent is valid?
Yes. Send the patent number and I'll search for art that predates it (invalidity search).
Will you sign an NDA?
Yes, before you share anything confidential.
What do I need to send?
A description of the invention, any drawings, the features you think are new, and the countries you care about.
