## Your responsibility as an inventor
You are the inventor of record on every filing. You sign every submission. You certify the accuracy of every disclosure. You are responsible for:
- Disclosing known prior art via Information Disclosure Statements (IDS)
- Responding to USPTO Office Actions
- Deciding whether to convert provisionals to non-provisional applications within 12 months
- Paying maintenance fees on issued patents
- Assessing commercial strategy and freedom-to-operate
## When to consult a registered patent attorney or agent
Strongly recommended for:
- Strategic filings (inventions central to your business moat)
- Inventions that may trigger foreign-filing considerations
- Office Action responses (§§101, 102, 103, 112 rejections)
- Continuation and continuation-in-part strategy
- Freedom-to-operate analysis
- Patent assertion, licensing, or litigation
