An Intellectual property lawyer generally specializes in either patent law or copyright and trademark law. Many are skilled in the application process for protecting these rights. While the subject matter of the rights themselves can have an almost unlimited potential scope, to be protected under the law they must be unique in some way. An Intellectual property lawyer helps clients explain this uniqueness in their patent, trademark or copyright applications. Once approved, the right is protected against infringement for a number of years and the owner of a patent, trademark or copyright can sue for damages and request injunctive relief.
