About this listen

Can you legally file your own patent application? Yes. Should you? Patent attorney Julie King explains why DIY patent applications are almost always a terrible idea, and the rare circumstances when they might be acceptable.

You'll learn:

  • Why patent law is uniquely technical and complex
  • What patent attorneys bring to the table (technical degrees + legal training + special bar exam)
  • How one wrong word in your claims can make your patent worthless
  • The real cost of trying to save money with DIY filing
  • When DIY might be acceptable (hint: only if you don't care about actually getting strong protection)

See Monday's episode this week to learn why "quickly granted" DIY applications are often terrible.

This episode could save you from a very expensive mistake.

Avoid the legal horrors, and keep rocking your IP.
