A patent attorney has a background in science or engineering and acts for inventors in securing patent protection for their inventions.
Patent attorneys are required to precisely understand the technology underpinning an invention and are well versed in assessing the scope of patent protection.
Only someone who is steeped in patents and patent law is qualified to advise owners and licensees of patents on whether their rights are eligible for Patent Box relief, and on the patent protection processes available to non-holders of patents who could qualify.
