Your one-stop solution
Quality
Guaranteed
With 15 years of experience in the field, all TRANSLATIONS go through a multi-step review and editing process. Our specialists are native and well versed in different industry subjects. That's why top translation agencies hire us to increase their word count and manage complex patent projects.
DEADLINE
MANAGEMENT
We know deadlines are crucial, so we are prepared to manage long documents with short delivery times to meet the requirements that our filing partners need to manage the FILING & PROSECUTION of patents in every country of Latin America, from Mexico all the way to Argentina.
CONFIDENTIALITY
GUARANTEED
Every team of translators has signed a PRIVACY AGREEMENT, which protects companies' rights, safeguarding confidentiality at all costs. Nevertheless, we can sign any other agreement or document that our clients may deem suitable and advisable for these services.
Patent translations & filings
In times of lower growth, heightened trade tensions, and policy shifts, reducing costs is essential to be competitive. PATENTA® combines human creativity and machine intelligence to provide accurate, planned, and timely translations for filings in LATIN AMERICA. Save time and money avoiding unnecesary intermediaries who add rates over fees in every step of the process. Find everything you need in our one-stop solution.
IP NETWORK
We work side by side with experienced law firms in every country of the continent to make sure that patents are translated according to every IP Office’s requirements. Unfortunately, there’s no standard from one country to another, and patents granted in other regions might get rejected in Latin America due to ambiguous expressions or lack of specific wording.
THE RESULT
It’s all about a smooth filing process, avoiding rejections based on small details that can be adjusted before filing the application. Success begins at the translation stage.
SAVE TIME AND MONEY
Contacting different agents for translations, filings and prosecution is a time-consuming task that can be invested on your core services. On the other hand, we are aware that the translation rates are always higher than what you might expect, because translation agencies hire other small agencies and freelancers to do the job. And costs get even higher if you add filing and prosecution fees.
Avoiding intermediaries and leaving the TRANSLATION + FILING + PROSECUTION in our hands will save you at least 30% if not more so, and you’ll have to contact only one office to manage all your portafolio.
The impact of bad translations
- About 81% of study participants know cases involving errors in the translation of patent applications, from their own practical experience.
- More than 1 in 4 of them reported being aware of situations where translation errors severely damaged the ability of an applicant to secure patent protection.
- 58% described translation errors as a “latent risk” to the viability of their international patent portfolios.
As the translation expert, Mrs. Heike Holthaus, states in her well-known article on the impact of errors in patents:
“Whatever the cause may be, published patents contain mistranslations and poor terminology choices. When only the abstract and/or claims are translated, these errors are perpetuated when the specifications are translated as well, since terminology must be consistent throughout the entire patent.
Once the patent is issued, errors may be there for good, putting the patentee at risk for litigation, non-enforceability and invalidation, etc. Irreparable damage is done when the patent does not hold up during infringement proceedings.”
