OPINIONS & REPORTS

The patent opinion and report services offered by P. F. O’Reilly Law Office include, but are not limited to, the following:


 Drafting of Patent Validity Opinions
 – A patent validity opinion is a legal opinion as to whether a particular patent is deemed to be valid and/or enforceable.  More specifically, a patent validity opinion is a legal opinion or letter in which a patent attorney or patent agent analyzes an issued patent and furnishes an opinion as to how a court might rule on the validity and/or enforceability of the subject patent.  A patent validity opinion is often obtained by a party before commencing litigation involving the patent, or prior to purchasing the patent from another.  A patent validity search is commonly performed before the validity opinion is prepared so that the validity opinion can evaluate the validity and/or enforceability of the subject patent in light of the prior art.

 Drafting of Patent Infringement Reports – A patent infringement report or opinion is a legal opinion as to whether a particular product or process infringes the claims of an issued patent.  The patent infringement report or opinion is prepared by a patent attorney or patent agent and is often accompanied by a patent validity opinion.  It is common for a company that has been accused of patent infringement to obtain a patent infringement opinion from a patent attorney or agent prior to commencing litigation involving the allegedly infringed patent.
