June 25: Free webinar on oral advocacy before the PTAB

Interested in fine tuning your oral advocacy skills before the PTAB? The webinar tomorrow looks like a great way to do this. In my 15 years of practice, I have had to only go once before the Board for an oral argument. It was an application assigned to a business method art unit, which is nearly impossible to get through. Thankfully, we won and were able to get the patent for our client. I am looking forward to learning something new tomorrow!
