The American Intellectual Property Law Association (AIPLA) will be offering a webinar entitled "Patent Prosecution from a Litigator's Viewpoint: Position Your Patent to Succeed in Litigation & Post-Grant Procedures" on March 30, 2016 from 12:30 - 2:00 pm (Eastern). Tom Irving of Finnegan Henderson Farabow Garrett & Dunner, LLP; and Robert Sloss of Procopio Cory Hargreaves & Savitch, LLP will show attendees how to avoid mistakes in patent prosecution and prepare patents to withstand potential future litigation and the AIA's new post-grant procedures; teach attendees fundamentally sound principles to prepare and prosecute U.S. applications according to best practices, to obtain claims that should have enhanced chances of survival when challenged under AIA's IPR and/or PGR post-grant proceedings; and describe the hurdles litigators face in explaining complicated patents to technology-phobic judges and juries and will provide suggestions on how patent claims can be written to be better understood by non-engineers.
The registration fee for the program is $145 (AIPLA member rate) or $195 (non-member rate). Those interested in registering for the program, can do so here.
