Patent Attorney Definitions

Patent Attorney

A patent attorney usually refers to an attorney licensed to practice law in at least one state and who is also licensed to practice before the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO). A patent attorney usually has a scientific or engineering degree or practical engineering or scientific experience as well as a law degree and must pass a licensing exam administered by the USPTO that tests the patent attorney’s knowledge of patent law and procedure. A few attorneys who specialize in litigating patent disputes but who do not hold the USPTO license nonetheless hold themselves out to be patent attorneys.

Copyright

A copyright is a form of protection provided to those who create “original works of authorship” whose definition includes literary, dramatic, musical, artistic, and certain other intellectual works, both published and unpublished. The 1976 Copyright Act generally gives the owner of copyright the exclusive right to reproduce the copyrighted work, to prepare derivative works, to distribute copies or phonorecords of the copyrighted work, to perform the copyrighted work publicly, or to display the copyrighted work publicly.

Trademark

A trademark is a word, name, symbol, or device that is used in trade with goods to indicate the source of the goods and to distinguish them from the goods of others. A servicemark is the same as a trademark except that it identifies and distinguishes the source of a service rather than a product. The law pertaining to these two kinds of marks is nearly indistinguishable.

Licensing

Licensing is the freedom of parties to privately contract and have those contracts enforced by a government in a neutral arena is one of the most important concepts in a successful society.

Litigation

Intellectual property litigation involves either the enforcement of or the defense from an intellectual property right.  A party involved in an intellectual property dispute can easily be faced with a bet the company decision as to whether to litigate, either on the defending side or the enforcing side.   I can offer a reasonable cost solution to your litigation needs.
