		<description><![CDATA[The United Nations World Intellectual Property Office (WIPO) recorded an all-time high in patent applications filing accepted in 2008, throughout its 30-year history. A total of 1.76 million filings were received. This number has seen a little decline last year of 4.5%, owing to the US recession.

China took a big leap forward ranking 5th, and displacing France.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Planning to hire a patent lawyer is unlike hiring a legal representative for some other reasons like libel, divorce, or other civil and criminal cases.

		<description><![CDATA[The number of distinct types of legal monopolies over creations of idea, both artistic and commercial, and the corresponding fields of law is called Intellectual property (IP). Under intellectual property law, owners are given particular sole rights to a variety of intangibles, such as musical, literary, and artistic works; ideas, breakthroughs, and inventions; and words, phrases, symbols, and designs. Intellectual property has been divided into four main categories namely patents, copyrights, trademarks, and trade secrets.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[A trademark is a key intellectual property right that helps in protecting the ownership that a company or any other body has over its brand name or logo. For the legal recognition of the brand name, the trademark needs to be certified and approved with the trademarks and patents office in your country. The registration provides legal recognition to the trademark, and this in turn permits its proper use. It also discourages others from copying the trademark as a company is liable to be prosecuted in case of infringement.]]></description>
