ABA-Section of Intellectual Property Law

Over the last decade, patent, trademark and copyright law has undergone more change, more quickly, than at any other time in its history. The American Bar Association Section of Intellectual Property Law is committed to keeping its 21,000 members fully informed of the latest developments in this ever-expanding field.

The Section has over 87 committees, each dealing with a special aspect of the law as it relates to intellectual property under the statutes, common law, and the provisions of international treaties. Committees are organized into ten major divisions.

Each year, the Section holds its Summer IPL Conference, which offers CLE programs and networking opportunities. Other meetings covering "practice tips" in specific areas of practice - such as trademark litigation, enforcing and defending patents, and patent practice - are offered also. CLE teleconferences are held periodically.

Members receive the monthly Chair's Bulletin, the quarterly IPL Newsletter, and an Annual Report. Extensive course materials are published in connection with CLE programming, and many single titles are also offered.

Two open online discussion lists - one for all lawyers interested, and another especially for law students - are maintained by the Section. A number of closed discussion and distribution lists are available to members only.
