Intellectual property is one of the most rapidly growing areas of legal practice, and one that is particularly suited to small and boutique firms focused exclusively on IP cases. Many attorneys are considering going off on their own in this dynamic practice specialty. Starting an IP Law Practice provides the right questions to ask in deciding whether to go out on your own. As you evaluate your options, Ann M. Mueting explains what other practitioners have faced in setting up various types of practices focused on intellectual property in a variety of settings. Using a case study format, the book covers a range of career options, from solo and small firm practice to patent prosecution to IP practice in-house and at a general firm. These real-world accounts cover all aspects of starting a practice, from office equipment and staff to fees, getting and keeping clients, and firm management. Looking at the unique conflicts and liabilities of an IP law practice, the book includes practice-proven tips, tactics, links, advice, and tools such as interview questions and a new-practice checklist.
