One of the top patent filers sought to enhance patent quality over quantity while finding cost-effective solutions to support this shift. Their primary goal was to ensure their patents had strong licensing potential, but the high costs of working exclusively with a U.S. law firm made this challenging. To address their needs, they chose the hybrid model of CHIP Law Group and Sagacious IP that combined cost-efficient drafting and prosecution services with Sagacious’ expertise in incorporating a licensing perspective early in the application process. This approach successfully met their expectations, balancing quality, cost, and strategic value.
