Webinar: Work Smarter, Bill Smarter – How Innovative Patent Teams Are Using AI to Work Faster, Cut Fees, and Keep Quality High

Corporate mandates to cut costs are accelerating. And many companies are pushing that pressure straight to outside counsel.

They’re asking firms to reduce fees. They’re also asking a pointed follow-up.

“If AI is making you faster, where are my savings?”

Join IPWatchdog and Juristat on Thursday, February 26, at 12 PM ET, for a panel discussion with innovative patent practitioners on how firms are adapting right now, by changing workflows, adopting new technology, and finding efficiencies that protect margins while meeting client expectations.

This is not a theory session. It’s a conversation about how teams are actually working smarter today.

We’ll discuss:

• Why fee pressure is rising now, and how AI is reshaping client expectations around pricing and value
• The workflow changes innovative firms are making to reduce rework, shorten cycle times, and deliver the same (or better) work product
• Practical ways to streamline prosecution, portfolio support, and reporting without lowering quality
• Where AI is working – and where it isn’t yet.
• How firms are setting guardrails for AI so speed gains don’t create new risk
• What clients are starting to demand in billing, predictability, and “show your work” transparency

If you’re feeling the squeeze from clients demanding fee reductions, or your in-house and interested in how firms are meeting the challenge, this session will give you practical strategies to cut time, cut waste, and deliver more value without working longer hours.
