Frequently Asked Questions

Answers to the questions we hear most often from prospective clients.

How long does a patent portfolio audit typically take?
A comprehensive audit usually takes 4–8 weeks, depending on portfolio size and complexity. We provide a timeline estimate during the initial consultation. Smaller assessments may be completed more quickly.
Do you work with patents outside Canada?
Yes. We advise on US, UK, European, and other international patents. We have relationships with trusted counsel worldwide and can coordinate filing and enforcement strategies across multiple jurisdictions.
What does trademark monitoring actually involve?
We track new trademark applications and usage that could conflict with your brand. Our system monitors Canadian registries continuously and alerts you to potential issues. We also provide guidance on whether enforcement is warranted.
Can you help with IP during a company acquisition or sale?
Absolutely. IP is a critical component of company valuation. We provide due diligence support, portfolio assessment, and strategy recommendations to help you understand IP value and mitigate risk in M&A transactions.
How much does a typical engagement cost?
Fees vary based on portfolio scope and complexity. We offer transparent pricing with clear estimates before work begins. Many engagements range from $8K for targeted assessments to $30K+ for comprehensive audits and strategy development.
What if I'm a smaller company with a limited budget?
We work with businesses of all sizes. We can structure engagements in phases, prioritizing the highest-impact recommendations first. Let's discuss your situation and find an approach that fits your needs.
