Fundamentals of PatentProsecution 2012: A Boot Camp for Claim Drafting& Amendment Writing

Why You Should AttendThis program is directed to patent attorneys, litigation attorneys and patentagents with or without a Patent Office registration number, or little patentexperience. It will focus on teaching the basics of claim drafting, patentapplication preparation and prosecution, as well as a review of recentdevelopments in the law. A litigator’s perspective is also presented toshow how drafting and prosecution can influence the development, andoften the outcome, of subsequent patent litigation. The clinics offer aunique supplement to the kind of hands-on mentoring that senior attorneysare hard-pressed to provide to less-experienced attorneys and agents.

What You Will LearnThis three-day program will feature lectures each morning followed by smallclinic sessions in the afternoon. Both the lecture sessions and the clinicswill follow the patent application process — from invention disclosure andpatent preparation (Day 1), through prosecution and issuance (Day 2) andinto litigation (Day 3). Homework is different for each program and isspecially designed to complement the Chicago, New York City and San Francisco programs. Homework must be completed and submittedupon registering onsite at the program. More information about thehomework will be made available at www.pli.edu at a later date.

The lectures are designed to provide a review of the patent preparation andprosecution process and explain:

• How to decide what elements of the invention should be included in the patent

• How to prosecute an application to result in allowance of an enforceable patent

• How to interview an Examiner

• How to use reissues, reexaminations and other post-issuance proceedings

• How to anticipate patent litigation issues during the patent prosecution process

Special Features• Morning lectures on critical patent application topics, including theAmerica Invents Act

• One-of-a-kind, small group clinics with experienced patent prosecutors to develop and polish patent writing skills

Who Should AttendPatent attorneys, patent agents, technical advisors and patent liaisons with no or very little patent prosecution experience will benefit from this program.
