                           fees, subsequent prosecution fees, additional application fees, issue fees, maintenance fees, etc.) or cost associated

                           Please remember that patent searches and patentability opinions search the applicable patent databases. They
                           can not and do not include all prior art in existence everywhere in the world.  Most importantly, a patent
                           may be invalidated if prior art that an inventor was aware of and did not produce is proven. For this reason, it is in the
                           inventors best interest to provide all the information they are aware of that would be reasonably relevent to one of ordinary
                           skill in the art.
