Landis on Mechanics of Patent Claim Drafting gives you the very latest word on patent claim drafting, including a new sample exercise for drafting business method claims. Youll learn new ways to deal with claims that involve numerical ranges -- how to understand the different treatments of preamble language, including the CAFCs Catalina Marketing guidelines -- how the CAFC treated the unusual Markush grouping in the Abbott Laboratories case -- how the CAFC interprets substantially, essentially, similar and other words of approximation.

How-to reference

Filing a patent application comprises essentially three parts; writing the disclosure and drawings, drafting the claims, and filing the required work and fees with the Patent Office (which includes dealing with the office actions, if any). This book focuses exclusively on the second of these three parts, writing the claims. The claims are the legal heart of the patent, since they will define exactly what is, and what is not, covered by the patent; the application will be rejected if the claims are too broad, or not supported, or fail to be specific in pointing out the invention; on the other hand, the patent will be useless if the claims are insufficiently inclusive, and a product can bypass the detailed claimed invention. This book covers the details of exactly how to write a good patent claim, that will satisfy the requirements of the U.S. Patent office, describe the invention clearly and distinctly point out the novel features, and cover the invention sufficiently to stand up in court. It is the classic how-to reference for the practicing patent agent or lawyer.
