A trademark enquiry comes in
A trademark enquiry comes in and the fee quote and search take days, so the client files elsewhere.
Intellectual Property Firm CRM
CRM for IPR Patent Trademark Filing Agents Across India
Turn every enquiry into a retained client.
A startup wants a trademark filed this week, and the class search is still pending. An inventor calls to ask about a patent search for a new product, and nobody follows up after the first call. Renewal dates for forty marks sit in a sheet no one checks. Right now that runs across five different phones and an Excel sheet one person keeps, and a mark due for renewal is remembered by half the team. CIPHER CRM puts every client, filing, renewal and fee on one screen, made for how an Indian IP practice actually runs.

Success stories What Legal teams say about CIPHER CRM
Founders bring us work in pieces, an ESOP plan this month and a seed round that may or may not close. On the CIPHER board each mandate moves from first call to engagement letter, and the fee total under each stage tells me roughly what should come in.

4.8 What Legal teams say about CIPHER CRM
Inside the High Court there is hardly any network. I type the next date on my phone's browser anyway, and my senior sees it once I step out.
Shashank Tripathi Associate, LitigationPrayagraj
Fee proposals went back and forth in long email chains, and nobody was sure which version the client had agreed to. Their legal head now accepts the final one from a link.
Zarine Batliwala Managing Partner, ManagementMumbai
Most of our bank panel work is title searches for home loans. When I set an enquiry's source to bank panel, our standard checklist comes with it: sale deed, Index II, share certificate, tax receipts. Every search now starts from the same list, whichever advocate takes it.
Rutuja Deshpande Coordinator, Front OfficePune
When our senior associate moved to Delhi, I was worried about her factory clients. Her call notes and settlement drafts stayed on each client's record, so the new associate picked up the conciliations where she left off.
Pranay Sinha Equity Partner, ManagementJamshedpur
Our clients usually pay part of the fee when we file the GST appeal and the balance after the hearing. In CIPHER the invoice shows Partially Paid after that first cheque, and once the due date goes by it is flagged Overdue, so I know whose balance to chase.
Vimal Bothra Office Manager, AdminJaipur
A divorce or custody file holds things a family would not tell even their own relatives. Our juniors can open only the cases assigned to them.

Kshitij Malik Founding Partner, ManagementGurugram
Corporate clients kept ringing our front desk for a copy of the last order. Their legal team now opens the orders we share on our firm's portal.
Chaitanya Vemuri Practice Manager, OperationsHyderabad
Every trademark bill has the Registry's official fee, which carries no GST, and our professional fee, which does. In CIPHER CRM I set the tax line by line, so GST sits only on our fee.
Kalaivani Rajendran Accounts Executive, FinanceChennai
In AGM season each client gets a task in CIPHER for its ROC work, with a checklist of forms and registers and a colleague's name on every item. From the task list I can see how far each company has got without opening any of them.
Foram Parikh Team Lead, SecretarialVadodara
Rent agreements get stuck when an owner reaches the sub-registrar without his Aadhaar copy. Each agreement is now a task with reminders for the stamp paper and registration date, and its checklist shows which ID papers are missing, so my clerk calls the parties a day ahead.
Nadeem Qureshi Notary Public, ManagementBhopal
We do contract review for a London law firm and a few Indian companies. The London firm is billed in pounds, the Indian ones in rupees.
Harleen Grewal Billing Manager, FinanceChandigarh
A missed mediation sitting means getting both parties and their counsel together again. Every sitting goes on the CIPHER calendar with a reminder the day before.
Nilakshi Saikia Case Manager, RegistryGuwahati
Fraud work means train fares out to a client's branches and stacks of photocopied ledgers, and every rupee of it gets billed back. My team enters each receipt against the client while still on site, so when I raise the invoice I just filter that client's expenses.
Sayantan Ghosh Chief Executive, ManagementKolkata
Getting papers out of trustees takes call after call, the signed trust deed first, then everyone's ID proofs. I log what they promise on the enquiry and set the next date. The reminder finds me that morning.
