Introduction

Why Patent Invalidity Search Matters
In today’s highly competitive IP environment, a single patent can
make or break a product launch or legal defense. A Patent
Invalidity Search is your strategic tool to:
● Challenge questionable patents
● Strengthen your litigation position
● Safeguard market entry
● Reduce legal risks
At IIP Search, we help clients find critical prior art that can
invalidate patents and support legal arguments with precision.

What Is a Patent Invalidity Search?
iipsearch.com
A Patent Invalidity (or Validity) Search is a comprehensive
prior art search aimed at assessing the strength of an existing
patent claim by:
●
Identifying prior art references (patents, publications,
products)
● Evaluating whether the references pre-date the patent’s
priority date
● Determining whether the claims are novel and non-obvious
This service is commonly used in litigation, licensing negotiations,
and preemptive invalidation strategies

Key Scenarios to Consider a Patent Invalidity Search:
● When facing patent infringement litigation
● Prior to entering licensing or settlement talks
● During due diligence in mergers or acquisitions
● Before launching a new product in a contested space
● To defend against patent trolls and overbroad patents
A well-executed invalidity search can be the foundation of a
successful defense or negotiation.
