The Patent Cooperation Treaty (PCT) is the heart of the international patent system and should be considered in every applicant’s patent filing strategy. When it is used appropriately, the PCT is a cost-effective option for international patent protection that provides benefits for applicants, patent offices, and third parties. But the PCT is also complex and challenging.

Based on the authors’ years of experience and the important lessons they have learned, this updated edition demystifies the PCT to help practitioners employ the system to their clients’ advantage. Starting with an explanation of the PCT’s framework and covering detailed information about procedures, safeguards, and strategy, the book’s comprehensive chapters provide the necessary tools to effectively understand and use this global system.

Jay A. Erstling's career has spanned law practice, teaching, and international service. He recently retired as Special Counsel at Patterson Thuente IP, where he provided strategic advice on international patent and trademark issues and served as an advisor and expert witness in disputes involving the PCT, Paris Convention, and other treaties before US, foreign, and international tribunals. Prior to joining Patterson Thuente, Jay served as Director of the Office of the PCT and Director-Advisor to the Director General of WIPO in Geneva, Switzerland, where he played a leading role in reforming the PCT legal framework and expanding the PCT system. Jay continues to share his unique perspective on international IP as a Professor Emeritus at Mitchell Hamline School of Law, and a visiting professor at the Vytautas Magnus University Faculty of Law in Lithuania and the KDI Graduate School of Public Policy and Management in Korea. He co-authored The Practitioner's Guide to the PCT (first edition with Sam Helfgott and Dave Reed; revised edition with Megan Millert), published by the ABA, and he is a frequent speaker on issues in international IP policy. Jay currently lives in Minneapolis, MN.
