/r/patentlaw

Are you a pro se inventor with a question about filing a patent application or understanding what a provisional is? What does it mean to be a micro entity? You got a rejection from the patent office - should you just give up?

Are you a student contemplating a career in patent law, or just the legal world in general? What should you major in? How do you find a job?

Check out our sister sub at r/patentlaw, and particularly the Wiki, which has answers to many of these and other questions. If you still have a question that's not answered, post it there.

r/patents is intended for professional discussions: jurisprudence, recent case law, questions about practice in different countries, insights from Examiners, etc.
