• Have you ever found yourself at a loss as to how to deal with a notice of rejection after filing an application with the Japan Patent Office？
• And have you ever found yourself at a loss as to how to make sense of a notice of rejection that comes sent to you in Japanese alone？
• Or have you ever found yourself with a notice of rejection that comes delivered entirely translated and, despite having abandoned the application, paying unnecessary translation costs？

These situations arise on account of the routinizing of all the procedures.

Most Japanese patent law firms run on an assembly-line system in order to uniformly process large volumes of patent applications, which can lead to wasteful procedures and costs, and to patentability determination information for clients outside the reach of the Japanese language not getting across at all.

And with Japanese patent attorneys not accustomed to the patent legal systems of other countries composing memos from the standpoint of Japanese patent practice, at times you may find the response strategy incomprehensible.

In such cases, it can happen that you are compelled to draft your response instructions by inferring from limited information, or that your response instructions are submitted to the Japan Patent Office as a reply paper in a mistaken form.
