Prior Art Search (or Patentability Search) Explanation: To get a patent generally requires an attorney to fill out amount of paperwork. This includes making sure that the invention, process or whatever is being patented does not already exist. The technical term for this is called a Prior Art Search or a patentability search. This search usually requires few levels of analysis to verify that the item being patented or parts of it doesn't exist in a variety of different patent classes. Once you've determined that your invention, process, or whatever it may be is original then you are ready to proceed to the next step.
