For IP law firms

Client-ready IP documentation with blockchain certificates and verifiable evidence.

Modern IP evidence for modern practice

Your clients need more than advice—they need evidence. Bernstein provides the tools to create, document, and verify intellectual property claims with blockchain-backed certainty.

Whether you're advising on trade secrets, prior art, or IP transactions, Bernstein certificates give your legal arguments the evidentiary weight they deserve.

Why law firms choose Bernstein

Stronger evidence for clients

Blockchain certificates provide mathematically verifiable proof of existence, integrity, and ownership that strengthens your clients' legal positions.

Globally recognized

Certificates are valid worldwide and increasingly accepted by courts in the US, EU, China, and other major jurisdictions.

Instant documentation

Create timestamped evidence in minutes, not weeks. Perfect for time-sensitive IP matters and rapid innovation cycles.

Confidential & secure

Client files are never disclosed. Only cryptographic fingerprints are stored on the blockchain—contents remain private.

Expand your portfolio

Go beyond registered IP rights management, from trade secrets to defensive publishing, and offer your clients comprehensive IP protection.

Grow your business

Interact more often with current clients and attract new clients from additional industries and sectors through modern IP services.

A service your clients can use autonomously

Empower your clients with a practical tool for the ongoing documentation of their entire R&D process in a central location, allowing for continuous interaction and relevance between the more discrete, formal steps of registration at specific milestones or events.

Building value around blockchain certificates

Offer and apply your expertise at every step of the process.

  • Help identify and classify critical knowledge to be secured with Bernstein.
  • Set up knowledge management policies leveraging Bernstein access-rights features.
  • Define the perimeter of knowledge with blockchain certificates for more effective NDAs, license agreements, and confidentiality clauses in employment contracts.

Strengthening the legal position of clients

Use Bernstein certificates as evidence in court, both for abatement enforcement and infringement defense—for example, by proving the control of trade secrets, claiming authorship of copyrighted material, and securing proofs of IP infringements.
