Your Guide To Common Questions and Solutions

What is the role of an intellectual property paralegal?

Intellectual property paralegals play a key role in assisting attorneys with administrative and procedural tasks for patents, trademarks, and copyrights. They work in law firms, corporate legal departments, or government agencies, handling filings, research, and IP-related documentation.

Can they work remotely?

Yes. Our IP paralegals work remotely and integrate seamlessly with your team to manage filings, research, and administrative duties with the same quality you expect from in-house staff. This provides dedicated support without the need for office space, equipment, or employee benefits.

Can paralegals handle IP cases?

Yes, but only under attorney supervision. Paralegals provide essential support for intellectual property matters, but they cannot give legal advice or represent clients independently. All work is completed under the direction of a licensed attorney.

How much does it cost?

Legal Soft’s remote IP paralegals are available on flexible, month-to-month plans starting at $2,922 per month. This eliminates overhead expenses such as equipment, office space, and employee benefits typically associated with in-house hires. Use our ROI calculator to see your potential savings.

How do you maintain quality?

Every paralegal goes through a thorough vetting process to confirm their intellectual property knowledge and experience. Our platform includes ongoing performance tracking, quality reviews, and direct communication tools so you maintain full visibility into the work completed for your firm.

Can a paralegal assist with patent prosecution?

Yes. IP paralegals can draft and file applications, track office actions, and maintain deadlines under attorney supervision.

Can they assist with international patent filings?

Yes. Our paralegals coordinate with foreign counsel on your behalf and handle documentation for PCT applications and international trademark filings across multiple jurisdictions.

What software and tools do your paralegals use?

Our paralegals are proficient in major legal and IP management platforms and can adapt to your firm's existing systems, including Clio, Filevine, MyCase, and USPTO systems.
