A skilled patent lawyer can be a litigator as well as an expert in the application process. Attorneys often assist inventors and innovators in applying for protection so that they may be free of direct competition for a period of time. Attorneys help distinguish the design or process from other similar ideas that may already have protection. A patent lawyer may also be able to bring infringement lawsuits, or defend their client against an infringement lawsuit brought by another party.
