Significant changes to the US Patent laws are being implemented as a result of the Leahy-Smith America Invents Act (AIA).  The protection of inventions, the procurement of patents rights, and the enforcement and defense of those rights are all implicated by the AIA.  This portion of the blog is intended to aid in your understanding of these changes and their effects.
