For IP law firms

Build verifiable evidence for your clients' IP and stay involved as their innovations develop.

Modern IP evidence for modern practice

Your clients need more than advice - they need evidence. Bernstein gives you the tools to create, document, and verify it, anchored on the Bitcoin blockchain.

Whether you're advising on trade secrets, prior art, prior use, infringement, or IP transactions, Bernstein certificates add evidential weight to your arguments.
