[quote=Anonymous]You have a PhD in biomedical engineering? From a good school? And you are a social person with good communication skills? You can find a firm that will pay a salary for you to work as a patent agent and pay a big chunk of your tuition while you go to law school part time. Look at Finnegan or Sterne Kessler. [url]https://sternekessler.csod.com/ats/careersite/JobDetails.aspx?site=1&id=10[/url] I'm not sure what's on offer right now, but the USPTO also often offers tuition reimbursement for patent examiners. It goes away when there are budget cuts, but comes back when the office is desperate for people. Look at the evening program at Georgetown or GW. Don't go to a lower ranked program. If you can get into a T14, you could consider going full time and taking on debt. --Chemistry PhD, JD who practices patent law[/quote]
