FAQs Patent Questions
Question:How can I get Land Entry file information for patents?
Answer: Land Entry files were created when a person claimed land under an act of Congress. They first had to fill out an application, and sometimes provide other information(marriage or immigration documents), at the local General Land Office.
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.
Question:Can the Patent Office recommend a patent attorney or agent to assist me with filing my application?
Answer:
The U.S. Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) cannot make this choice for you. However, a general attorney may help you in making a selection from among those listed as registered practitioners on the USPTO roster.
