The Top Two Patent Mistakes You Can't Undo

Don't unknowingly forfeit your patent rights by making these two huge mistakes! Specifically, patent rights start to be lost upon a first public disclosure, public use or offer for sale of an invention. Also, most people don't realize that the USPTO will give you "patent pending" status on literally anything that you file as a provisional patent application and many inventors file provisional applications that lack sufficient detail, which makes them completely worthless and results in loss of patent rights, even if the filing technically gives "patent pending" status.
