How to prevent the occurrence of patent infringement disputes

Legal analysis: establish an early warning mechanism to prevent problems before they happen. In order to avoid litigation risks, enterprises should search for patents during product development, understand the patent situation of the industry and the developed products, avoid falling into a disadvantageous position of infringing others' patents during research and development, and also save product development time and cost. Seek reconciliation.
