Freedom to Operate Report (FTO)

Our firm is one of the leading firms in FTO reports in Brazil. In our FTO report, we provide the client with a legal opinion regarding the possibility of commercially exploring a new product in Brazil. The searches and opinion thereof are prepared by senior patent attorneys (technical people having both technical and law degrees and with more than 15 years of experience). The FTO report must be prepared and signed by a patent attorney in Brazil. If not, it is not considered a legal opinion. Depending on the circumstances, we may suggest the development of new products, differentiating the product from the blocking documents (patents and patent applications) uncovered in the prior art search (inventing around).

Our FTO report provides detailed information on each relevant document uncovered in our searches, namely, abstract, filing particulars, key members of the patent family (US, EPO and WO), patentee, title and status of document at the Brazilian PTO.

Reports requested on demand by the pharmaceutical industry are customized and contain information regarding the drug registration before the National Health Surveillance Agency (ANVISA).
