Written records are still required to verify and prove an inventor's right to an invention and the related intellectual property. Computer generated documentation is not valid in court.

Astute entrepreneurs and businesses know it's easy to legally protect an idea before filing a patent application by maintaining a legal journal. Your best start is to begin with our Quick Start Guide and then use the Scientific Journal as a day-to-day log in order to maintain diligence and prove your rights to your invention. Remember, you can lose your rights through abandonment if you do not maintain written records.

The Scientific Journal exceeds all legal requirements: glued binder, sequentially numbered pages, verification signature lines and more. It's a cinch to draw your inventions on our proprietary grid lines. Includes complete sample drawing illustrations for easy reference. See what's inside:
