The High Cost of Missed IP Law Firm Calls
Missed Patent Prosecution Deadlines Due to Unanswered Calls
During critical phases of patent prosecution—such as responding to Office Actions within the 3-month deadline—35% of inbound calls to IP law firms go unanswered during business hours. This delays client responses, risks abandonment of patent applications, and increases the likelihood of losing valuable intellectual property rights. For firms managing high-volume patent portfolios, even a single missed call during a U.S.PTO deadline window can result in irreversible loss of priority or claims.
Lost Global Clients During International Filing Windows
With 78% of legal clients hiring the first firm that answers, IP law firms miss urgent international leads—especially from clients in Japan, Germany, or India—due to time zone gaps. For example, a client in Tokyo seeking immediate trademark clearance search support during a pre-filing window at 9 PM local time may hang up after reaching voicemail, resulting in a lost opportunity to file under the Paris Convention. These missed calls often occur during critical design patent application windows or cross-border IP infringement notices.
Attorney Time Wasted on Manual Intake for High-Value IP Matters
Attorneys spend an average of 1.5 hours per week handling intake calls for routine matters like NDA reviews, copyright registration, and prior art searches—time that could be redirected toward strategic work such as ex parte appeals or inter partes review (IPR) preparation. This inefficiency reduces billable hours and delays client onboarding, especially during peak filing seasons like Q2, when design patent applications surge by 40% year-over-year.

“I was skeptical about AI handling sensitive IP intake, but Answrr’s ability to distinguish between a client asking about a copyright registration and one seeking a prior art search for a new medical device was impressive. It even flagged a high-risk IP infringement notice from a biotech startup during a weekend, triggering an immediate alert to our team. Since then, we’ve reduced client response time from 48 hours to under 2 hours, and our conversion rate for IP portfolio management engagements has risen by 22%.”
Robert Chen
Senior Counsel, IP Nexus Strategies, Intellectual Property (IP) Law Firms
“During the last Q2 filing surge, we were overwhelmed with design patent application inquiries. Our intake team was spending 60% of their time on basic client qualification calls. Answrr now handles all initial contact—asking for product details, filing timelines, and jurisdictional needs—then books appointments via Calendly. We’ve reclaimed 18 billable hours per attorney per month, and our client satisfaction score for trademark clearance searches increased from 78% to 94%.”
