在专利服务体系中,专利代理人和律师无疑是其中最为重要的两个群体。这两个行业互为补充、和谐发展,无疑有利于提高专利代理质量,更好地为企业的技术创新服务,推动国家知识产权战略的顺利实施。不过这两个行业主管部门不同,业务范围上又存在一定的重合,双方对专利代理业务的执业范围、准入资格等方面都存在一些不同的理解。2011年2月,国家知识产权局向国务院法制办提交的《专利代理条例(修订草案送审稿)》(以下简称2011年草案),就引起了律师行业的强烈反对。
In the patent service system, patent agents and lawyers are undoubtedly the two most important groups. The two industries complement each other and develop harmoniously, which undoubtedly helps to improve the quality of patent agencies and better serve the technological innovation of enterprises and promote the smooth implementation of the national intellectual property strategy. However, these two industries have different authorities and there is some overlap in the scope of business. Both parties have some different understandings on the scope of patent agency business and the qualification for admittance. In February 2011, the State Intellectual Property Office (SIPO) filed a lawsuit with the Legislative Affairs Office of the State Council on the Patent Agents Ordinance (Draft for Revising Draft) (hereinafter referred to as the “2011 Draft”), which aroused strong opposition from the lawyer’s profession.
