Big-firm and in-house experience at boutique rates with high level of service. You work directly with senior attorneys, and with ceilings on fees set before we start. That way, you see the top of the cost, and you benefit from any cost savings from efficiency.

The Intellectual Property (IP) Portfolio Audit
First, you need a counseling session covering your business goals and expectations of your IP program – no charge for this initial consultation.
Then, a flat fee review of your patent portfolio and tech stack, paired with a review of your IP processes.
The output will be the following:
01
A clear report on all current IP assets
02
An IP strategy that utilizes patents, trademarks, copyrights and trade secrets
03
An adjustable IP budget
04
Multiple options for your IP operations as your strategy develops over time

03Track record
$5M
A biometric startup ran out of money before it could build a prototype. It still sold for over $5M, primarily on the strength of the modest portfolio we built.
$3M+
We kept a startup’s related product concepts in separate patent families, then sold a small portion for over $3M, funding its core product through to a successful exit.
Prior results do not guarantee a similar outcome.
