How to Get Everything Done, Get Your Life Back, and Enjoy Practicing Patent Law Again

It’s 4 o’clock. Do you know where your day went? If you spend your day “putting out fires” chances are you’re trying to do too much on your own. And when something isn’t “done” it creates an endless loop of anxiety – whether it’s an IDS you’ve been meaning to file or anything else lingering on your docket.

When all of these “not done” items prey on your mind – even when you’re not in your office – you’re headed for a big problem… It could cost you significant amounts of money in unnecessary extension fees… It could cause you to miss a bar date… It could cause you to lose a client… It could ultimately cost you your license…

You may tell yourself you can’t afford the time to look for help. You don’t have time to train someone. But you also know you can’t keep doing what you’re doing... Well, friend, today’s your lucky day because those issues just evaporated!

Hi, my name is Diane Miles. I’ve supported patent and trademark prosecution attorneys for over 20 years. So I know the frustrations you have … You’re pulled in 17 different directions all the time. I can help you in your practice… And you can get your life back!

You don’t have to do it all by yourself. I started my own business as an administrative consultant to provide the kind of legal support solo intellectual property attorneys need. Please don’t assume that I am a “virtual assistant.” No way.

I take a proactive approach to your practice and invest a lot of time and effort in analyzing your needs before we even consider working together. I assess how you spend your time every day. Each of my clients receives a customized plan of administrative and paralegal support.

We talk about the goals you have for your practice (you do have goals, don’t you?) And then I work with you to develop a strategy to dig you out of the pit you’re in and get you moving in the direction you want to go. You see, my clients’ success is important to me.

When my systems and processes are put into place everything that needs to get done is done – at a controlled pace. Short-term projects are completed in a timely manner. Longer-term projects get tackled.

Imagine being able to devote your day doing what YOU do best … While I provide client support, execute paralegal tasks, and manage the administrative side of your practice.

Imagine having the freedom … and mental energy … to provide better work product for your clients. Believe me, they WILL notice the difference. With my help you’ll be able to spend less time working and more time doing things you want to do…

I Can Save You AT LEAST Five Hours Per Week…Maybe More Depending on how much correspondence you receive per week from the USPTO and foreign associates, each item demands anywhere from minutes for docketing and reporting to your client.

What about preparing paperwork for filings? What about chasing down signatures for Declarations/POAs and Assignments? How many times do you have to follow up with clients to get foreign filing instructions, etc? This is all second-nature to me because I’ve done this FOR YEARS in big law firms, boutique firms, mid-size firms and even in-house.

Let me ask the question again: What would you do with an extra 20 hours per month? Would you spend more time with family? Take better care of yourself? Build up your practice – and train an associate to handle things so you can enjoy yourself even more?

I hope you can see how my reliable, ongoing administrative and paralegal support opens a whole new world for you. It’s my mission to help my clients build the practice and the lifestyle they envisioned when they decided to have their own practice in the first place.

IT’S YOUR TURN. You have a lot to lose by not making the appropriate investment in your practice and continuing to try to do everything by yourself.

Don’t wait until you lose a client or miss a deadline. Don’t waste thousands of dollars in unnecessary extension fees because you didn’t have enough time to do what you needed to do. Don’t stress yourself into a health crisis for being cheap and stubborn – yes, I’m talking to you.

One of my retainer packages is a better use of your money than a Petition to Revive a patent application or a trip to the hospital! I can only help a couple of clients due to the customized nature of my services. Don’t miss out…

Contact me today and we can set up a time for a no-cost, no-obligation consultation. me at Do it now.
