Your current attorney will still be indicated as address for service on your patents and will still be able to act on your behalf. Using our system does not revoke a power of attorney previously granted and you do not need a new power of attorney to use the system.
You can inform your current attorney that you are processing your patent renewals through other channels. It is common practice in the industry to use one attorney to prosecute your application and use another service to attend to the renewals. This is understandable, as renewal applications are merely formalities before the patent office and applicants should not be expected to pay exorbitant fees to maintain their patents.
