RE: Filed My First T-Shirt Trademark Today
How easy is it to file a patent in the US patents office? I had a friend who was discouraged just by looking at the criteria and pre-conditions for filing one @rulesforrebels
From my limited understanding patents are ALOT more complicated than trademarks. A trademark can simply be a name, a phrase or a logo. You dont have to provide any drawings beyond an image of the logo or font which is optional. A patent you need very detailed drawings and writings showing the designs. Even just the research process can cost thousands and thousands of Dollars. A neighbor of mine spent $11,000 just to research to find out his idea was already taken.
