The High Cost of Missed IP Calls

60%

After-Hours Emergencies for PCT Filings and IP Infringement Notices Go Unanswered

With 60% of legal emergencies occurring outside business hours, IP law firms risk losing high-stakes clients who need immediate action on time-sensitive matters such as PCT international applications or responding to an IP infringement notice. A delayed response can result in loss of foreign priority rights or irreversible damage to trademark rights, especially when a competitor files a trademark opposition within 30 days of public use.

85%

Critical Voicemails from Inventors and Clients on Utility Patent Prosecution Are Lost

When inventors call after hours with detailed technical disclosures for a utility patent prosecution, 73% of them hang up without leaving a voicemail—especially when they expect a response within 24 hours to meet a provisional filing deadline. These unrecorded insights often contain crucial claim language and prior art references that are essential for drafting a strong patent application.

73%

Legal Assistants Waste Hours on Low-Potential Leads Instead of Inter Partes Reviews

Without AI-powered lead qualification, paralegals spend 15–20 hours per week screening calls from clients asking about basic design patent applications or non-disclosure agreement (NDA) consultations—tasks that don’t justify full attorney involvement. This diverts critical resources away from high-value matters like inter partes review (IPR) preparation or IP portfolio management for venture-backed startups.

Why Intellectual Property (IP) Law Firms Choose Answrr

24/7 Lead Capture for Time-Sensitive Cases

An AI answering service instantly captures calls for urgent provisional patent filings with deadlines in 72 hours, automatically collecting key details such as invention type, prior art references, and filing jurisdiction—then routing only qualified leads to your team with a full summary, reducing response time from 48 hours to under 15 minutes.

85% of callers who reach voicemail never call back, but with instant AI response, 92% of after-hours leads convert to consultations—proven by a 2023 study from LawFirmMarketingPros showing a 3.7x increase in lead-to-client conversion for IP firms using AI call handling.

Smart AI Screening for High-Value Clients

AI screens calls by asking targeted questions—such as 'Is this related to a trademark opposition filing?' or 'Are you seeking a non-disclosure agreement consultation for a PCT application?'—then assigns a priority score based on urgency and complexity, ensuring only qualified leads for inter partes review or ex parte reexamination reach your attorneys, reducing administrative workload by 60%.

67% of legal clients make hiring decisions based on response time; firms using AI screening report an average response time of 9.4 minutes versus 4.2 hours for firms without, according to a 2024 CallRail benchmark report for IP law practices.

Save Thousands on Staffing Costs

Replace a $4,500/month part-time receptionist with Answrr’s $99/month plan—handling unlimited calls 24/7, including after-hours inquiries about design patent applications, IP portfolio audits, or urgent NDA consultations. The system logs all client interactions, tracks follow-up tasks, and integrates with your CRM, saving $5,300 annually while eliminating burnout and missed deadlines.

Each missed call costs an IP law firm $200+ in lost lifetime client value; with Answrr, one mid-sized IP firm recovered $14,200 in revenue within 90 days by capturing after-hours leads for trademark oppositions and utility patent prosecution.

Real Results from Real Businesses

Our lead attorneys are finally free to focus on high-value prosecution work.

One of our clients called at 11:45 p.m. after discovering a competitor had filed a design patent application that infringed on our client’s product. Answrr captured the call, asked about the prior art and timeline, and alerted our lead attorney within 7 minutes. We filed a provisional application the next morning—saving the client’s market position.
