If you have an idea for an invention, you need to hire a patent attorney as soon as possible to protect your rights. Patent attorneys are registered with the USPTO (Patent Office) and understand the laws and rules for working with an Examiner to have a patent issue for an invention.
Can I work with a Patent Agent?
Yes, but a patent agent is not allowed to practice law. A patent agent can only write patent applications and respond to office actions.
