标题: Patent law

Hi,

I've heard conflicting report of the job market for patent law. Some people say it's still quite hot. Some others claim the market is flooded with unemployed patent lawyers.

Are there any practicing lawyers who can offer some insight?

It is a hot area and getting hotter.

Patent law has many areas. just like everything, some areas may have shrinked (e.g. prosecution). But if you are talking about Patent Litigation, it is the hottest of the hot.

My background: BSEE+MSEE. Undergrad GPA 3.0. 5 years of experience working in semiconductor industry. 3 years as a software engineer, 2 years as FAE.

I'm preparing for LSAT right now. I think I only have a realistic shot at a tier 2.

I'm debating whether to fork out the big money to pursue this "supposedly more lucrative" career?

I would go for a scholarship if your tier 2 means anything below top50.
