Presented by: ILTA and Baker Robbins & Company
 
Hosted by:  Mayer, Brown, Rowe & Maw LLP, Chicago, IL
 
Date:   Thursday, April 29, 2004

How effective is your intellectual property practice?  What makes clients choose you over your competition?  Many law firms are now engineering their patent prosecution, trademark registration, and management of their IP litigation practices to:

-  Ensure a high quality of service to clients,
-  Reduce the risk of costly malpractice claims, and
-  Become cost competitive.

As a result, leading firms are deploying the latest generation of IP-specific technologies to more closely align their firm with clients, proactively sell prospects, and provide competitive prices.  IP practitioners can then distinguish themselves and sell more value-added (and revenue generating) services including strategic consulting and litigation.

This is a free one-day seminar in Chicago and will be an informative discussion of the substantive issues and latest concepts to consider when contemplating the selection and implementation of IP management systems and other supporting technologies.   Law firm case studies as well an insight from several firms will be presented.

Topics for presentation include the following:

- The Technology Savvy IP Practice—Why Should Practitioners Care?
- Automating Your New Business Intake & Records Management Processes
- Operational Challenges and Financial Management Best Practices
-Real Life Lessons: Using Technology in the IP PracticeThis will be an informative discussion of the substantive issues and latest concepts to consider when contemplating the selection and implementation of IP management systems and other supporting technologies.  A law firm case study will also be presented. Creating the Technology Savvy IP Practiceis a must attend session for law firm IP practitioners, IP administrators and IT professionals interested in deploying technologies in support of IP best practices.

There is only limited seating available for this free seminar.  Be sure to reserve your space as early as possible. 

Registration must be received by April 29, 2004.
