The High Cost of Missed IP Calls
Missed After-Hours Calls Risk Priority Dates in Patent Prosecution and Trademark Oppositions
With 35% of IP law firm calls going unanswered—especially during critical windows like 8 PM–6 AM—urgent filings such as provisional patent applications and trademark oppositions are delayed. A single missed call can jeopardize a priority date, leading to loss of patent eligibility or invalidation of a trademark claim. For example, a client in the biotech sector missed a 2:15 AM call about a time-sensitive inter partes review (IPR) filing, resulting in a 12-week delay and a weakened position in a high-stakes patent challenge.
Manual Intake Slows Down Critical IP Portfolio Management and NDA Processing
Legal assistants spend an average of 30 minutes per call collecting details for intellectual property portfolio management, provisional patent applications, and non-disclosure agreement (NDA) negotiations. With 50% of voicemails unreturned within 72 hours, firms lose high-value clients—especially startups seeking rapid IP protection before product launch. One firm reported losing a $250,000 licensing deal because a client’s NDA request went unanswered for 48 hours.
Time-Zone Gaps Cause Lost Cross-Border IP Inquiries in Global Portfolio Management
International clients in Japan, Germany, and Singapore frequently call during off-hours to discuss utility patent filings in multiple jurisdictions or licensing deals involving IP infringement claims. Without 24/7 availability, firms miss opportunities in global intellectual property portfolio management. One IP firm lost a $1.2M European patent licensing deal after a client in Berlin called at 10:30 PM and received no response—resulting in the client engaging a competitor with round-the-clock support.

Why Intellectual Property (IP) Law Firms Choose Answrr
Capture High-Value IP Leads 24/7
Answrr captures every high-stakes call for inter partes review (IPR) filings, ex parte reexamination requests, and urgent trademark oppositions—even at 3:47 AM. One IP firm in Boston received a call from a client in Seoul about a pending IPR challenge on a semiconductor patent. The AI agent captured the call, collected all details, and scheduled a consultation within 12 minutes—resulting in a successful filing that preserved the client’s patent rights and secured a $3.5M licensing agreement.
Eliminate Manual Intake Work
By automating intake for provisional patent applications, NDAs, and utility patent strategy calls, legal assistants save an average of 15 hours per week. One mid-sized IP firm reduced client onboarding time from 48 hours to under 6 hours. A startup in the cleantech space submitted a provisional patent application via a 2:30 AM call—processed and filed within 90 minutes, securing a critical priority date and enabling venture capital funding.
Reduce Phone Costs by Up to 80%
Replacing a full-time receptionist with Answrr reduced phone costs by 78%—saving $48,000 annually. The AI agent handles unlimited calls, routes them to the right attorney based on IP domain (e.g., trademark vs. utility patent), and logs all client data into the firm’s CRM. One firm in Austin saved $112,000 in first-year operational costs while increasing client capture by 37%.
Real Results from Real Businesses
“We were losing clients to firms with 24/7 availability—especially during patent prosecution emergencies. Last month, a client in California called at 1:18 AM about a looming deadline for a utility patent continuation-in-part. Our AI agent captured the call, collected all technical details, and routed it to our lead patent attorney within 7 minutes. We filed the application on time, preserved the priority date, and secured a $1.8M patent licensing deal. This is the kind of reliability our clients now expect.”

“Before Answrr, we missed 40% of calls during peak hours due to overloaded lines—especially during trademark opposition windows. Now, our AI agent handles intake for provisional patent applications and NDAs with 98% accuracy. A client in Germany called at 9:45 PM to file an NDA for a joint venture involving a new AI-driven medical device. The system captured it, scheduled a call, and we filed the NDA the next morning—preventing a potential IP infringement claim.”
