Filing a Patent Application Without an Attorney: USPTO 10am 3/31/26 Virtual

Are you interested in filing a patent application without assistance from a registered patent attorney or agent? If so, join our next Stakeholder Offerings and Resources (SOaR) session on Tuesday, March 31, from 1–2 p.m. ET.

Sheree Brown, a patent examiner who is an expert on the application process, will discuss the three-step approach to filing a patent application without an attorney or agent (known formally as a pro se application).

Topics we will cover include:

• Understanding the different types of patents
• Filing provisional versus nonprovisional applications
• Researching related, pre-existing inventions
• Registering as an e-filer
• Completing the required forms, including disclosures

SOaR training events are free and open to the public, but advance registration is required. After you register, we will email you instructions to join the webinar.

For more information about SOaR training events, email SOaR@uspto.gov. Captioning services will be provided.
