Post: Becoming a Patent Agent
Posted by Mark, pooodar@yahoo.com, on 1/06/02
I am a PhD scientist currently doing research in a biotech company, however I have recently become interested in the possibility of becoming a patent agent. Is there anyone out there who has gone through the transition from the lab to practicing law who could tell me what to expect? What is the market like for a PhD scientist with no patent experience? I know of people who work as technical specialists while working towards becoming patent agents. How difficult of a transition is this? What does the work typically involve? What is a typical salary and future prospects (with and without a JD)? Thanks. -Mark
