Do I Need A Lawyer To Patent My Idea?
While patent and trademark attorneys are not necessarily required to apply for one, it’s recommended to hire one. Many people fail to realize how complicated the process is until they’ve actually started. After all, there are several steps involved, and having your patent denied is not an uncommon experience. To mitigate the risk of putting your intellectual property at risk, it’s best to enlist the help of a professional.
What Is The Difference Between Patent Attorney And Agent?
