How does a patent illustrator add value to your patent application?

A first-time inventor always asks if he really needs a patent illustrator for his/her patent application. It is because he may not be familiar with the patent drawings standards of USPTO. If patent drawings rules are not followed properly, it might lead to rejection of your application at the prosecution stage. So, hiring a certified patent illustrator not only brings success to your invention protection but also saves your time and money. Also, a good patent illustrator safeguards your patent design from rejection if your patent attorney misses out any details.

According to WIPO, a patent application must include drawings if it is helpful in the understanding of the subject matter. Also, drawing brings a great advantage to the examiner by making the application easier to understand. This is where a patent illustrator works as a savior by maximizing applicants’ benefits. It is true that an accurate patent illustration makes patent drafting easy. It accelerates the process and the application prosecution as well. Hence, you need an experienced patent illustrator with good skill-sets to bring out the best from your invention.
