Patent Search Overview

Before you invest time and money into a patent application, it's critical that you identify any existing patents or published applications that contain inventions similar to yours.

LegalZoom's Comprehensive Patent Search identifies relevant patents that are issued or applications published with the US Patent & Trademark Office (USPTO). Providing such relevant "prior art" to the USPTO is required to complete your utility patent application. LegalZoom can conduct a Comprehensive Patent Search in 3 simple steps.
