What people are saying about us

“
Black Hills’ IP automated docketing system has been incredibly accurate and reliable. The efficiency of the process has saved the firm countless hours of manual docketing time and enabled us to docket US patent information in very short time frames. We are very happy with their service.

Break out of a file used to take one person two or three days. These are now done within hours, allowing attorneys and their clients to look at things more quickly and also to bill faster. We rely on BHIP to do all of our docketing.
