What people are putting up with today

  • Time-management and docketing errors cause 27% of all intellectual property malpractice claims — more than any other cause.

  • A single missed renewal can mean a client loses their patent or trade mark rights outright, and the claim that follows.

  • Firms already pay for renewal-management services and carry professional indemnity premiums priced directly on this risk — one firm reported a $50,000 docketing investment saving $200,000 in premiums in its first year.

How Riskward works

Riskward audits a firm's live matter list against the public renewal register and the firm's own deadline records, flags anything missing or disputed, and delivers a written report the firm can hand to its professional indemnity insurer as evidence of risk management.

  1. 01

    Send Riskward your matter list — patent and trade mark numbers, jurisdictions — nothing else.

  2. 02

    Riskward checks every deadline against the public renewal schedule and the firm's own records, flagging anything missing or disputed.

  3. 03

    You get a written audit report to act on internally, and to show your professional indemnity insurer as evidence of risk management.
