Better question: Does “Patent Buddy” have what it takes?
What makes PB think that their method can possibly find the top prosecutors?
Actually, this is a way of PB anointing itself as some “keeper of patent attorney truths.” A person should consult PB if they want to find the best prosecutors. Ridiculous.
PB can no more do this than some magazine editor can tell us “The Best Places to Live.”
Some questions for PB: Will there be a swimsuit competition? Will we have a bowl game at the end of the season? If an attorney doesn’t make the list this year, would they have a better chance next year by appearing on Dancing With the Stars?
