You should think of it generally as either a process or an object. A single object either does, or does not, use a specific mounting member. A single object cannot "usually" use a specific mounting member. We, like most patent attorneys, either handle litigation services or work closely with another firm that does depending on specific industry and current work load. | |

I will use it if necessary, in addition, do you also provide infringement litigation service as a patent lawyer? have a great day. | |
