Patent Attorney Leads Seminar on Patents, Copyrights and Trademarks for Independent Inventors and Writers
A class on patent, copyright, and trademark protections was presented September 15, 2003 at 7PM through the West Hartford, CT Continuing Education Center. Ms. Karen Greenberg, a Patent Specialist attorney practicing in the U.S. Patent Office, presented an interactive talk on all aspects of patent law and patent writing, and discussed copyright and trademark protection for original creative work. Class participants, who were predominantly independent inventors, learned how patents are organized and written. By studying real patents, students became familiar with the technical language used by patent practitioners. All participants received copies of the multitude of required Patent Office form, and practiced the high art of translating the arcane language used in the Patent Office.
"Most writers and inventors don't realize that they can unknowingly lose all their rights to their own work if they - or even their friends or family - engage in certain non-allowed activities," said Ms. Greenberg. "It's a huge benefit if inventors find out these rules and regulations very early in the inventive process."
Ms. Greenberg is a Patent Specialist Attorney admitted to practice in the United States Patent and Trademark Office, and is a member of the New York and Connecticut bars. She periodically conducts intellectual property related seminars in New York and Connecticut. Her practice comprises all aspects of general and intellectual property law but she admits that patents have always been her first love.
