Assuming you work 49 five-day weeks in the year, 2100 hours/year requires you to bill nearly 43 hours per week. That is approximately 8.5 hours per day. I don't know how efficient other people are, but I was rarely able to bill 8.5 hours in a day without being there for at least 12 hours.

Quote from: biopico on 01-26-08 at 11:58 pm. SF Area: $100-150/hr. I'm not sure how accurate this number is, but I can only speak for where I work. Where I am, which is not in the SF area, an agent's hourly rate starts at 150-175 depending on experience. 100-150 is more of a technical consultant hourly rate (a non-attorney who has not yet registered as a patent agent).

Patent Prosecution, Billable Hours, and Misery So my current situation is that I work at an IP boutique firm in Silicon Valley that recruited me out of law school over a year ago. I love prosecution, but I hate my firm, I hate billable hours, and I hate Silicon Valley.

A patent law employee can expect a salary of $80K-200K depending on experience and law degree (technical specialist/scientific advisor vs. patent agent vs. patent attorney).

No kidding. The annual quota is 1750 hours, but again these are BILLED hours, not BILLABLE hours. The end result is that to reach 1750 billed hours, a typical Knobbe associate will work 1900-2000 billable hours, a number that typically triggers a bonus at market-rate law firms.
