<p>I’ve worked with a lot of patent lawyers. All of the ones I know worked for at least a few years as an engineer before going to law school. For patent law I think that is a better path. However, if you are still in high school, it is way too early to decide on this. </p>
<p>There is some info about patent law on the law school forum
