Freedom to Operate Search:
FTO Search or Clearance search, needs specialized search strategies, thus we use a combination of different approaches to produce the most complete search. As a part of the FTO search we identify if you are going to infringe patents before you start, so you are less likely to end up in court. Within the scope of the FTO search will disclose patent documents in-force in any of the countries presented by you, whose subject-matter are similar with the subject-matter of product or process to be exploited.
