What do you like best about Alt Legal?

Docketing and deadline tracking = the best Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Alt Legal?

Would love reference sections to be added in the future. No complaints so far. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Alt Legal:

The UI and functionality are impressive, and we know that Alt Legal has more tricks up their sleeve that they'll be deploying as they continue to grow and fulfill this very important niche.

The ease of docketing and the automated reminder emails are wonderful to ease your fears of missing important deadlines. Keeping track of multiple registrations, etc., can be a logistical and administrative nightmare - Alt Legal makes it a dream.

The intake software is another key component - no need for questionnaires via PDF or scanning/printing, etc. You send the client a link, receive your needed info, and can input directly into the USPTO application. The time you save allows for conversion of more opportunity. Highly highly recommended. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Alt Legal solving and how is that benefiting you?

Huge time-saver. Covers intake, which is easily transposable to the USPTO applications. Covers docketing and statutory deadlines - a huge tool that lets us all sleep easy without worrying about possibly missing important deadlines Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Alt Legal?

I like the Chrome extension tool that allows you to input data straight to the USPTO and the daily recap email of deadlines. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Alt Legal?

I wish you could set the daily recap of deadlines to not send on weekends. I'm big on work life balance and that annoys me. The international marks also need better functionality, but this company is on to something and I don't think it will take them long to get there. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Alt Legal solving and how is that benefiting you?

Better efficiency in our docketing of domestic marks. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Alt Legal solving and how is that benefiting you?

I am able to seamlessly onboard clients and gather critical information concerning their trademarks with ease. As a solo attorney, my time is incredibly important. AltLegal's systems allow me to not only be more efficient, but also communicate with my client's quickly concerning the status of their trademarks. I love the built in email templates and that AltLegal will even customize your emails if you need to make slight changes. I no longer have to log into the USPTO's archaic system to monitor my marks, because AltLegal's docketing software does it all for me. Even when I'm not able to log in, I still receiving daily and weekly email summaries concerning my portfolio. I'm able to file trademarks much faster and focus on the business of my business more. It's a no brainer to have AltLegal if you're a trademark attorney! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Alt Legal?

This. Changed. My. Life. As a small trademark practitioner, I needed something functional and easy. This does it. Deadlines are all easy to see. It sends you a daily digest of marks coming up on deadlines, etc. It also pulls your marks in automatically so setup is A BREEZE. I am their new biggest cheerleader/ fan, and tell all of my non-legal friends how excited I am-- which is lame but shows how excited I am. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Alt Legal?

They are new so I believe it will get souped up eventually. This is what I'd love to see:

-Ability to customize questionnaires and all aspects of intake process (right now, limited customization)

-I have some issues with logo sizing, but that could just be user error

-More robust copyright management options (I realize this is a trademark focused product, but this would be nice)

-Zapier integration would be great Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Alt Legal:

Realize that they are a new company, but know they are super willing to help you and offer support.

If you need something simple and easy to manage IP, this is it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Alt Legal solving and how is that benefiting you?

KEEPING EVERYTHING AUTOMATED and easy to see

Easier deadline management

Intake is a breeze Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Alt Legal?

User interface is easy to use and intuitive. I like being about to access all clients' marks in a single search and to quickly get client-specific overviews.

Also, the deadline tracking is great, a true triple prong strategy! I check on Alt-Legal regularly for upcoming deadlines. They also send me a docketing email daily. Lastly, the integration with Clio also builds in a reminder there, so I'd be on top of all trademark matters even if I don't try. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Alt Legal?

The search function sometimes isn't as quick as it could be, but only a very minor issue. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Alt Legal solving and how is that benefiting you?

Automatic deadline calendaring is a key feature which helps me out. I never have to worry about surprise deadlines. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
