A practical, informed approach

Peritus IP helps review the filing history, assemble the application record and plan the next steps with the applicant and patent team.
Section 135 of the Patents Act provides a 12-month period for a qualifying convention application. The priority basis and deadline need to be checked for the specific filing. See Section 135 of the Patents Act.
