Docketing
Docketing is the way IP professionals manage deadlines and documents associated with the patent and trademark application process. An effective docketing system is particularly important when managing the prosecution process of hundreds of different patents and trademarks over a time period of many years.
Our clients appreciate that we can provide a full docketing solution or can function as an extension of their existing intellectual property admin team.
