Utility Patent

A utility patent is a type of legal protection granted to inventors for new and useful inventions or discoveries. It covers the functional aspects of products, processes, or compositions, giving the inventor exclusive rights to make, use, or sell the invention for up to 20 years. This patent ensures that others cannot copy or profit from the invention without permission. To obtain a utility patent, the inventor must provide a detailed description of the invention and demonstrate that it is novel, non-obvious, and useful in some way.
