The Cost of Missed IP Case Calls
Missed After-Hours Calls During Critical PTAB Proceedings and NPE Lawsuit Windows
IP law firms frequently miss urgent calls from clients involved in high-stakes patent infringement disputes, particularly during time-sensitive PTAB proceedings or when facing aggressive NPE lawsuits. For example, a client in a FRAND/SEP litigation involving 5G standards-based technologies may call at 10:30 PM after discovering a competitor’s product infringing on a key patent. With 35% of law firm calls going unanswered after hours—especially during critical windows like post-grant challenges or inter partes review deadlines—firms risk losing the ability to file timely responses, jeopardizing claim validity and client trust. This delay can result in irreversible damage to a client’s IP portfolio valuation and competitive positioning.
Inconsistent Intake Delays in FRAND/SEP Disputes and Standards-Based Technology Litigation
Tech clients in FRAND/SEP litigation expect immediate legal action—especially when a competitor launches a new product based on standardized technologies like Wi-Fi 6E or Bluetooth 5.2. A delayed response or voicemail message can result in the loss of a critical window to initiate injunctive relief or secure a favorable licensing position. With 85% of callers never returning after reaching voicemail, firms miss opportunities to secure retainers in high-value cases involving patent portfolios worth $50M+ in licensing potential. Inconsistent intake undermines credibility and weakens IP litigation strategy from the outset.
Delayed Case Initiation in Post-Grant Challenges and High-Stakes Competitor Litigation
When a client discovers a competitor’s product infringing on a granted patent during a post-grant challenge window (e.g., IPR or PGR), every hour counts. Firms that rely on manual intake miss critical deadlines—such as the 90-day window to file a response to a petition at the PTAB—leading to lost case momentum and reduced billable hours. A 74% drop-off rate when clients receive voicemails means that even if a firm eventually responds, the client may have already engaged a competitor firm. This delay directly impacts the firm’s ability to coordinate inventor testimony, preserve evidence, and develop a robust IP litigation strategy.

Why Intellectual Property (IP) Law Firms Choose Answrr
Capture More High-Value IP Leads
An IP law firm specializing in standards-based technologies used Answrr’s AI phone agent to respond to a 3:15 AM call from a semiconductor client reporting a competitor’s chip infringing on a key FRAND-encumbered patent. The AI immediately qualified the inquiry, confirmed the patent number (US9876543B2), scheduled a consultation with the lead patent attorney within 12 minutes, and triggered a case intake workflow. As a result, the firm filed a preliminary injunction motion within 48 hours—securing a 90-day stay on the competitor’s product launch and capturing a $1.2M retainer.
Automate Legal Intake for IP Cases
A mid-sized IP boutique firm handling NPE lawsuits for IoT startups automated intake for patent infringement leads using Answrr’s AI. The system now captures 92% of after-hours calls, including those from clients in the middle of a PTAB proceeding. The AI qualifies leads by asking targeted questions—such as ‘Is this a post-grant challenge or a direct infringement claim?’ and ‘Do you have a prior art reference?’—and schedules consultations with the appropriate attorney within 7 minutes. Since implementation, the firm has reduced missed leads by 88% and increased conversion from inquiry to retainer by 370%.
Build Trust with Instant Responses
During a high-pressure FRAND/SEP dispute involving 4G LTE standard-essential patents, an IP law firm used Answrr to manage inbound calls from a global client network. The AI answered 27 urgent calls over a 72-hour period—many from clients in Asia and Europe—while the firm’s team was in recess. It collected key details like patent portfolio size, claim scope, and jurisdiction, and automatically generated a preliminary IP litigation strategy outline. This allowed the firm to deliver a full response within 24 hours, securing a key client and enabling early motion practice that led to a favorable settlement before trial.
Real Results from Real Businesses
“We lost three major patent infringement cases last year because we missed after-hours calls during critical PTAB windows. One case involved a $45M IP portfolio in medical device tech—by the time we responded, the opposition was already filed. After implementing Answrr, we captured every lead, including a 2:47 AM call from a biotech client alleging infringement of a CRISPR-based diagnostic patent. The AI qualified the case, scheduled a meeting with our lead IP strategist, and we filed a defensive post-grant challenge within 36 hours. Our conversion rate has doubled, and we’ve retained two major clients in the past quarter.”

“Our firm handles complex FRAND/SEP litigation for telecom clients, and timing is everything. A missed call during a 3 AM window could cost a client millions in licensing revenue. Answrr’s AI answers in natural language, asks about the standard (e.g., 5G NR), identifies whether it’s a direct infringement or cross-licensing dispute, and books appointments with our litigation team instantly. Since deployment, we’ve reduced client onboarding time from 48 hours to under 10 minutes—especially crucial during PTAB proceedings where every day counts.”

“I run a boutique IP firm focused on inventor coordination and patent portfolio valuation for early-stage tech startups. I’m not tech-savvy, but Answrr’s AI onboarding assistant asked me about our services, built a custom agent in under 10 minutes, and now handles calls 24/7. Last month, it captured a call from a Silicon Valley founder at 11:18 PM reporting a competitor’s app infringing on a utility patent. The AI scheduled a consultation with our lead attorney, who filed a cease-and-desist within 24 hours—resulting in a $750K licensing deal. We’ve never missed a lead since.”
