On the Use of Experts for Patent Enforcement and Defense

As we know, patent attorneys are experts in IP and are also engineers or applied scientists/mathematicians. While patent attorneys are generally very knowledgeable about law and particularly patent law, they tend to vary in their technical abilities or the time they can devote to working in their technical field.

In today’s competitive world, manufacturers are always struggling to stay ahead and gain market share. To do this, they are constantly monitoring new patents; in addition, they use a technique called reverse engineering to evaluate competing products. In addition to this, reverse engineering is commonly used to determine the specifications for “aftermarket” replacement parts; these are then manufactured and sold without the original manufacturers’ participation. Naturally, the techniques and equipment used to reverse engineer a part are dependent on the part in question. These techniques can be as simple as calipers (or a micrometer), or they can be highly sophisticated pieces of vacuum equipment that perform elemental analysis of very thin surfaces.

Chapter 1-Attorneys and Corporate Inventors- Memos of Invention

Scientists and engineers are taught to maintain laboratory notebooks as an important first step in the invention process. They know, but often don’t follow carefully, the rules of including a reasonable description of an experiment and the data, an idea with a diagram, or a possible new process or device. The lab book usually has some coffee stains that give some authenticity. The book is signed by a colleague who usually signs about 100 pages with a single date. More on this later, but this is the beginning, even if somewhat flawed, beginning of the invention process.
