The American Bar Association (ABA) Center for Professional Development, Section of Intellectual Property Law, and Young Lawyers Division will be offering a live webinar entitled "Practical Patent Prosecution Strategies and Considerations" on June 23, 2015 from 1:00 to 2:30 pm (ET). Ida Wahlquist-Ortiz (moderator); Jameson Ma of Bookoff McAndrews, PLLC; Richard Goldstein of Goldstein Patent Law; Michael Van Handel of Wilmer Hale; and Carlos Garcia, Counsel - Innovation, Proctor and Gamble, Cincinnati will take attendees through patent application prosecution from the first Office Action through Allowance. The panel will cite examples of common rejections; show participants how to identify the most important aspects of the Examiner's rejection in order to successfully distill that information to his or her client; address the most effective ways to address each issue, whether it is arguing, amending, conducting an interview with the examiner, appealing, or some combination thereof; show how to craft effective strategies that will result in issued patents able to withstand USPTO post- grant proceedings and litigation; and also address various claim strategies resulting from recent Supreme Court, Federal Circuit, and PTO guidance, with respect to joint infringement issues, business methods, and claim construction.
The registration fee for the webcast is $150 for members, $95 for sponsor members, and $195 for the general public. Those interested in registering for the webinar, can do so here.
