A fairly typical quote for a provisional patent application (through filing) for a moderately complex mechanical innovation is $2,5000 for attorneys fees plus the cost of the provisional filing fee (typically $130) and the cost of any professional illustrations desired (typically $200 to $300).f we did the provisional the client has already paid $2,500 in attorneys fees, so the attorneys fees for the nonprovisional preparation and filing would be $6,000. Thus the total attorney fee does not change at all whether you start with a provisional or a nonprovisional patent application.
A provisional application for patent (provisional application) is a U.S. national application filed in the USPTO under 35 U.S.C. Â§111(b) . A provisional application is not required to have a formal patent claim or an oath or declaration.Provisional applications also should not include any information disclosure (prior art) statement since provisional applications are not examined.A provisional application provides the means to establish an early effective filing date in a later filed nonprovisional patent application filed under 35 U.S.C. Â§111(a) .onverting a provisional application into a nonprovisional application (versus filing a nonprovisional application claiming the benefit of the provisional application) will have a negative impact on patent term.
