SOFTWARE INTERNET PATENT APPLICATIONS

Drafting software patent applications require different skills sets than drafting mechanical patent applications.  The benefit of software patents can be great as a broadly written application with strong claims can be very powerful either from an enforcement or defensive standpoint.  Patent applications can further provide much stronger protection of code and the functionality of the invention then could copyright.   Copyrights of software merely protects the expression of the idea, typically this means just the code itself and not how the software works. 

Software and Internet patents can be a powerful tool for existing companies and particularly start-ups, as the value many start-ups will be a new software or online tool.  If this is not protected, the entire start-up could be in immediate jeopardy from competitors.
