Questions to Ask Before Hiring an IP Firm

  • What’s your experience filing in my specific technology area?
  • Who will actually do the work — a partner or a junior associate?
  • How do you bill, and can you offer a flat or capped fee?
  • What visibility will I have into the status of each matter?
  • Who owns the prosecution history and portfolio data if we part ways?
