Welcome!

This blog is for intellectual property transactional practitioners (those of us who make most of our living not from litigation) to exchange ideas, practice tips, information and networking contacts. It is open to members of the LinkedIn IP Transactionalists group; it may open to other groups in the future.

If you would like to become an author on this blog, enabling you to make original posts (in addition to comments), please email me; be sure to include in your request:

• your GOOGLE login ID (if you don't have one, click here to go to GOOGLE's sign-in page)
  
• your interest in IP (patent attorney, patent agent, "soft" IP attorney; that is the complete persons to whom authorship is open; this is NOT a forum for law students or the general public to make original postings, although we welcome relevant comments from anyone)
  
• if you're an attorney, please include your state or country of admission
  
• if you're a patent prosecutor, please include your USPTO or foreign agency registration number or information.
