Details

A unique and well-organized tool for confronting practical ethical issues and conflicts of interest that increasingly arise in patent litigation.
This book is a unique treatise on patent litigation, covering multifaceted aspects of the law, including essential patent ethics rules and case law, as well as practice-oriented strategies and examples to assist practitioners.
Written by respected practitioner and professor with many years of experience in patent.

Patent Ethics: Litigation serves as a guide to the ethical issues arising in the course of the patent litigation process. By providing relevant rules and case law, it allows practitioners to identify ethical problems before they arise and to address them most effectively when they do. Patent Ethics: Litigationis the second of two volumes on patent ethics-the first is on prosecution-written by Professor David Hricik and Drinker Biddle partner Mercedes Meyer. This treatise is the first of its kind to combine the PTO rules with commentary by the author, which distills the author's own experience and expertise in patent litigation into effective practice strategies.

Readership: U.S.-based patent litigators, private-practice attorneys and agents, in-house intellectual property departments, foreign law practitioners overseeing U.S. operations, and law schools.

The contents of the book will follow the Ethics Rules in the PTO Code, with practice commentary added after each rule.
