Abstract

Physics is a science concerned with natural laws. Although not directly required, a background in physics has applications in a myriad of other fields. The legal field is not an exception to this. A physics background in the law is a sufficient element for the United States Patent and Trademark Office's registration to practice. A physics background is also highly beneficial in other legal genres such as regulatory law. Moving into the field of law from physics requires some preparation but can be very rewarding.
