If you're interested in going into patent law or intellectual property law, which includes patents, trademarks, and copyrights, there really are two different flavors. There's patent prosecution, where you have to draft patents. And to do so, you have to pass the patent bar, which is a separate bar exam that's required beyond your state patent bar. So that's to draft patents. If you want to go to court and just litigate patents in a court system or enforce, you don't have to take the patent bar. You don't even need a technical background. You simply just can be a regular attorney and do that. So there are two different sides.
