What are the key differences between a patent attorney and a patent agent? In this episode, Jamie and Samar dispel the myths surrounding patent attorneys and patent agents. They specify the qualifications a patent attorney and patent agent must have and what actions fall under their jurisdictions, respectively. Takeaways:Both patent attorneys and agents are required to take the patent bar exam, which qualifies them to represent people in front of the USPTO. Patent agents are restricted strictly to the legal representation of clients in front of the patent office. However, patent attorneys can operate anywhere the law and the patent office intersect. Regarding more complex legal consultations that are not confined to the patent office, an attorney is often better equipped to handle them. Generally, attorneys charge more than agents, but this varies depending on the agent's or attorney's experience and market.Timestamps:0:00 - Introduction 2:11 - How do patent agents get registration numbers?2:49 - Patent bar exams 4:00 - Qualifications to take the exam4:45 - What can agents and attorneys do and not do?5:50 - Cost differences6:56 - Appeal Briefs 7:49 - At what stage do you need to get an attorney?8:50 - Closing thoughts

Guest ProfileName: Neil ThompsonWhat They Do: As a product development engineer, I had to speak in front of management every month for project status meetings. I was terrible at it at first but improved significantly over time. I turned everything I learned into an online public speaking course called Teach the Geek to Speak. The course's focus is helping STEM professionals communicate effectively with those outside their field, such as management and customers.Company: Teach The GeekNoteworthy: Blacks are underrepresented in STEM (science, technology, engineering, math). I want to change that, and strongly believe that getting kids to think about STEM when they're young is the way to go. I wrote a book to let Black kids know (if they didn't already) that STEM is for them, too. I used hair as the vehicle to impart that message. The book is about my nephew Anthony asking me why his hair is the way it is. I use science to answer the question.BioNeil Thompson teaches geeks, talks to geeks, and writes books for future geeks. With his company, Teach the Geek, he works with engineers and scientists so that they can communicate more effectively with non-technical audiences. He's the host of the Teach the Geek podcast, interviewing those with STEM (science, technology, engineering, science) backgrounds about public speaking. He's also the author of the children's book, Ask Uncle Neil: why is my hair curly? The book is about his nephew asking him why his hair is the way it is, and Neil using science to answer the question. The motivation for the book is to encourage more Black children to consider careers in STEM.Connect with Neil Thompson!

In this episode I speak with Andrew Trask, a Partner at Williams & Connolly LLP in Washington D.C. where he practices patent litigation. Andrew has played practically every professional role in the patent process. He started his career as a scientist/chemist where he was the co-inventor on a number of patents. He then went on to work as a non-lawyer Patent Agent at a large law firm in New York City while he completed law school at night. After graduation he clerked on the Federal Circuit (the federal court of appeals responsible for hearing patent appeals) and then after a few years at Williams & Connolly as a patent litigator he moved in-house to work at Google. He returned to the firm several years ago where he was just elected to the partnership this year. In our conversation, we discuss his path from scientist to lawyer, what it was like to simultaneously work as a big law patent agent and complete law school at night, the unique nature of practicing before the federal circuit, the differences of working in-house and at a private law firm, and some tips and tricks to succeed as a patent litigator.

Louis-Pierre Gravelle, a lawyer, engineer, and patent agent at Robic (robic.com) gives a thorough overview of the many issues that relate to patents and property rights in the ever-expanding field of artificial intelligence (AI). Robic is a boutique IP firm based in Canada that specializes in the protection and commercialization of intellectual property (IP) rights and other intangible assets, and of course any necessary litigation and/or transaction support. Founded in 1892 by engineers, the Marion brothers, the firm established its longstanding reputation of excellence under the direction of its eponymous principal, Raymond A. Robic. Since its establishment 125 years ago, Robic has grown expansively and is now home to over 180 employees. Gravelle's background in engineering and his particular interest in 3D printing has made him well suited for the countless AI issues and cases that are arising with hurried frequency in the advancing technology world. Gravelle states that AI patent applications are becoming commonplace, with the largest tech companies such as Microsoft, Google, and Amazon leading the way. As much of the work in AI of years past was generated in academia, a preponderance of core information and many basic algorithms are currently part of the public domain. And this makes for an interesting set of circumstances as new products are developed that could be tied, in part, to public domain data and key information. Gravelle discusses the difficulties that can arise in the determination of whose patented process a particular AI product follows. Thus potential infringement of rights is a complex area that requires intensive research in order to establish a clear resolution of rights. The law partner provides an overview of granted claims and infringement issues regarding IP and AI and how decisions are sometimes made in the process. For example, in the field of medical diagnostics with competitive companies that use AI engines to detect specific disease through in vivo or other diagnostics, it is often challenging to find the line where research crosses into infringement. And often times these are the areas where patent issues become lawsuits. In regard to 3D printing, Gravelle discusses how materials such as circuits, metals, and powders that go into the finish and solidity of the products are becoming an area of great interest in the IP legal arena as well. Additionally, he explains how issues in the legal tech field are expanding rapidly. Legal tech, in basic terms, would be classified as any computer-aided tool that assists an individual working in the legal arena, such as tools used for natural language processing, etc. As IP issues concerning AI and other intangible assets are increasing, Gravelle states that the complex issues that arise in regard to potential infringement are of great importance to rights holders.

In these times of divisive politics and unapologetic incivility by public figures, we’re proud to discuss Commonalities with Thought Leader Sheema Khan on this week’s INSPIRING LEADERS Podcast. “Rather than running on auto pilot and delegating critical thinking to others, it starts with the Leaders to take the time, to evaluate, think for themselves and use their intuition.” Do you believe the “Official Story” that you are told? Or do you focus on the facts and make up your own mind? As leaders, the former can lead to divisiveness and disaster and the latter can bring inclusion and innovation. “I’m inspired by leaders who fearlessly speak truth to power.” Sheema Khan was born in India and moved to Canada in the 1960s. She later earned a Masters in Physics and a Ph.D. in Chemical Physics at Harvard. She is a Scientist and a person of Faith, and she insists that these are mutually exclusive. Sheema is currently a Patent Agent with Shapiro Cohen LLP, and monthly columnist for the national Newspaper, the Globe and Mail.
