Question for anyone who works in patent prosecution: I feel like I am not getting proper training at my current firm. I have barely touched any office action responses or drafted any claims in the last year. I mainly spend my time reviewing small scale filings that the paralegals prepare (like terminal disclaimers) and sending reminders and status updates to the client and partner. Is this type of work typical for someone who is a first/second year? Am I missing out on vital training I should…

If you had a chance to lateral to a new firm as an equity partner right now versus staying at your current firm where you would have to wait another 1-2 years to be nominated for partnership (where the chance of being elected into the partnership would be high), would you leave? Assume the current and new firm are both good firms and competitive.

Dealing with serious health issues. Physical and mental. I’m in my mid twenties.

I’m already falling behind on work as a result of these issues and dont think I can catch up and keep up. What should I do?

I work at a very small boutique and have represented several law firms in disciplinary proceedings and against claims in litigation. I recently learned that some very large law firms have in-house counsel offices and would be interested in parlaying this into joining one of those groups. Is that doable? Do most of those in-house groups hire from within the firm? Are lawyers considered part of the in-house group but are also practicing law for externals clients on behalf of the firm?
