The High Cost of Missed IP Calls

60%

Missed Provisional Patent Filing Windows Due to After-Hours Call Failures

With 60% of legal emergencies occurring after business hours—such as last-minute provisional patent applications requiring urgent filing to secure priority dates—IP law firms risk losing critical IP rights. A single missed call from an inventor seeking to file a provisional patent application within a 12-month window can result in irreversible loss of patent eligibility. For firms managing high-volume patent prosecution pipelines, failing to capture these time-sensitive inquiries during evenings or weekends directly undermines their clients’ ability to establish strong IP portfolios.

80%

Lost High-Value Clients to Competitors

When a potential client calls about IP licensing or non-disclosure agreements and hits voicemail, 80% never call back, choosing a firm that answers immediately.

195 million

Wasted Attorney Time on Incomplete Voicemails

Attorneys spend hours returning voicemails instead of focusing on critical case strategy—especially during peak filing seasons like Q1 for patents.

Why Intellectual Property (IP) Law Firms Choose Answrr

Capture Every Time-Sensitive Inquiry

Answrr captures 85% of callers who would otherwise hang up after reaching voicemail—especially during critical periods like the USPTO’s Q1 patent filing surge. For example, a client calling at 10:30 PM about a design patent application with a tight 30-day window for pre-filing prior art search is instantly routed to a qualified intake specialist. The system schedules a consultation within 15 minutes, ensuring the client’s invention is protected before the deadline, while freeing attorneys to focus on high-value tasks like patent prosecution and inter partes review (IPR) strategy.

85% of callers who reach voicemail never return—according to a 2023 study by LawFirmMarketingPros, with 73% of those callers citing 'no response' as the reason for choosing a competitor.
