We know you’re busy. We know your clients are pressuring you to complete more work more quickly. But current methods for working with file histories require spending many hours on tedious and time-consuming tasks before you can even begin your legal analysis. And you don’t have any tools that facilitate your analysis once you get started.

Landon IP has the solution.

Patent Workbench® is a productivity tool that helps you work faster, smarter, and more efficiently whenever you need to review and analyze patent file histories and understand the scope of a patent’s claims. It provides easy file navigation and powerful search, export, annotation, and claims analysis tools that free you to focus on what you do best — practicing law.

Patent Workbench® gives you the power to:

• Eliminate nearly 100% of your up-front organizational tasks
• Review a file at least 30% to 50% faster than you can today
• Expedite claim construction by navigating the intrinsic evidence more thoroughly and more quickly than ever before
• Increase the efficiency and accuracy of your legal analysis
• Be more confident in the quality of your work products

Alexandria, VA (July 12, 2011) — Landon IP, Inc. is excited to announce the launch of Patent Workbench^TM, which revolutionizes the way attorneys work with file histories, especially in support of litigation, opinion drafting, licensing, valuations, or any other time understanding the scope of a patent’s claims is critical.  Patent Workbench^TM provides a unique suite of tools for reviewing and analyzing patent file history information and eliminates the time-consuming tasks of organizing piles of paper and sorting through claims before attorneys can begin their analysis.

 According to Julie Cook, Landon IP’s Vice President of Business Management:

“When our customers place a Patent Workbench^TM order, our experienced researchers use a proprietary process to create a special Patent Workbench^TM file package, which is delivered through our secure website.  Our customers then use our free Patent Workbench^TM Reader software to access powerful search, export, annotation, and claims analysis tools to support their legal work.”

Patent Workbench^TM users can:

• Eliminate nearly 100% of up-front organizational tasks
• Review the file at least 30% to 50% faster
• Increase their efficiency and accuracy
• Be more confident in their work products

Landon IP’s CEO, David Hunt, says:

We are 100% focused on meeting our customers’ needs. With Patent Workbench^TM, we leveraged customer relationships to create a product that delivers value for them and their clients.  We didn’t bring this product to market until our customers told us we got it right.”

Landon IP is uniquely positioned to introduce Patent Workbench^TM to the intellectual property community.  We began as patent stenographers in 1949 and have decades of experience assembling and selling file histories.  We also have the largest private collection of U.S. patent file histories in the world.

Landon IP will be making a significant contribution to GlobalGiving to support relief efforts in Japan.

In addition, Landon IP is matching employee contributions to GlobalGiving, in order to maximize the impact of our support.

Landon IP CEO David Hunt says:

I have traveled to Japan many times in the last few years and have deveoped strong relationships with many individuals there at both the professional and personal level. When I first heard about the earthquake and tsunami, I was devastated and knew immediately that I wanted Landon IP to do whatever we could to help the people of Japan during this extraordinarily difficult time.

Alexandria, VA (01/12/11) — Landon IP, Inc., the leading single-source provider for professional patent-related support services, is excited to announce the publication of an article entitled “How to Pick Your Search System” in the January 2011 issue of Managing Intellectual Property magazine, the leading global resource for IP news and analysis.

The article was written by Landon IP’s Intellogist® team and the editors of Managing Intellectual Property magazine. Kristin Whitman of Landon IP, a senior contributor to Intellogist and the Intellogist blog, authored the sections of the article covering issues to consider when selecting search systems, such as:

• The electronic patent collections that are included
• The approach taken to translating non-English collections
• The patent family types used

The article also includes tables that compare selected search tools across a set of common parameters that are critical for any user evaluating different tools. The information in these tables comes from Intellogist’s Quick Table Comparison tool, with the exception of the user ratings, which are based on a combination of views provided by Intellogist users and readers of the magazine.

Landon IP’s CEO, David Hunt, says, “We were very excited when the editors of Managing Intellectual Property magazine approached us about collaborating with them on their annual software survey. Landon IP is an industry leader in patent searching, and we were pleased to have the opportunity to share some of the knowledge that we have captured on Intellogist with the magazine’s audience.”
