DESCRIPTION

Patent prosecution practices vary across law firms, technology types, and client sizes.  Patents in the life-sciences industry present many opportunities.  Wilson guides us through the differences in these opportunities. 

  • What does “patents and innovations lawyer” mean?
  • What type of clients do patents and innovations lawyers work with? What is Wilson’s client base in this practice (and what is your personal client base)?
  • How are the work and the legal issues different based on whether your clients are tech companies or life sciences companies?
  • Does every big law firm have an “patents and innovations” practice group?
  • Does every patent lawyer need to have a PhD? Does that differ from firm to firm?
  • What does your typical day look like? Is that different based on your roles as partner or associate?
