Can I file additional designs of alternative embodiments in a single application?
Which and how many different views of each design model do I have to file, and how do I draft an appropriate classification?

German design patent application – things to keep in mind

Before you launch a new design, be sure to search for earlier, potentially conflicting designs. The German Patent and Trademark Office does not carry out any design search. Therefore, there is a risk that an owner of an earlier design could file a request for cancellation or send you a warning letter. Thereby, your design may get canceled, or the owner of the earlier design may claim injuctive relief and also compensation of damages. A professional design search can significantly reduce this risk and rule out potential legal collisions with older rightholders. This is much cheaper than the cost of a warning letter or a name change. Benefit from Patworx’s many years of experience – your patent attorneys in Munich, Germany.
