What should I pay attention to when choosing a patent agency?

1. When looking for a patent agency, you should pay attention to its qualifications, whether it is a formal agency filed in China National Intellectual Property Administration like the Express Law, and whether the professional background of its internal patent agent is the same as or similar to the invention field you want to apply for. You can investigate the number of cases they represent, the authorization rate, whether they have served large organizations and so on.

2. The agency fee should also be considered, and it is best not to consider any firm that is too low or too high. There is at least one power of attorney in the signed document, and the format of the power of attorney is unified by the state, and it is authorized agent by default.

3. More formal institutions will also provide entrustment agreements and confidentiality contracts, and it is best to sign them.

Full agency is more worry-free. For example, if there are any other legal problems after your patent is granted, the agency will inform you.
