The status settings in the Patent and Trademark module mirror those available to describe the status of matter records.


This is to give the module more flexibility.


One matter record can be set-up to handle one patent, trademark or filing in multiple countries.


As the status of each country changes the specific record can be modified, the information for each country stands on its own.


⇒ This helps with data management.


Rather than have one matter for each country you can have one matter for all countries. This consolidation is not only great data management, but a fantastic time saver for your staff.

A little know tool in the LAWTRAC application is a category available to track government document filing.


A tool that can be very useful as time passes.
