Thomson Reuters and Sterne Kessler
Patent eligibility analysis just got faster and sharper
This is where attorney-built litigation expertise meets the power of trusted Westlaw intelligence
The challenge every patent attorney knows too well
Section 101 can make or break a case. However, finding the right precedent often takes hours of manual research through inconsistent case law. Most teams assign research, wait days for results, and then debate whether they found the right cases. Meanwhile, clients want answers faster. The problem isn't your expertise; it's that tools haven't kept pace with the complexity.
