Patent preparation and prosecution is a complex process, and we will be with you every step of the way. We know what works and how to get results for you. At SLW, we continually seek to innovate to improve our service offerings. We are leaders in the digital transformation of IP prosecution, and that has kept us ahead of the curve when it comes to delivering high-level and value-driven service.

Industry Innovators

We have a long track record of innovation in the IP industry and this is powered by our continual drive for greater efficiency. Our founders created and developed Foundation IP, which is an industry-leading IP docketing system. They also started BlackHills IP, which is a highly focused provider of automated docketing – breaking new ground in the race for accuracy and efficiency in the IP industry. 

SLW continues to innovate, with our ClaimScape® software and our Analytics and Portfolio Dashboard providing our clients with unique tools that they can use to manage their patent procurement strategies. 

This appetite for innovation – and the efficiencies it provides – is firmly embedded in the culture of the firm and is the source and driver of our adaptability and industry leading service delivery.
