Overview
We know that making a referral to another professional can sometimes be risky. You need to have the utmost trust: trust that the firm you recommended will not let you or your client down, trust that the firm you have chosen will deliver high-quality work, trust that they have the experience to manage your clients the way you would, and trust that they will be organized and responsive. And we feel the same way. Reputations are built on trust, relationships, and deliverables and at MBM, we are all about building long-standing relationships.
As an IP boutique law firm, MBM practices exclusively in the area of intellectual property law. We have a proven track record and reputation that speaks to our commitment to providing high-quality IP services and strategic IP advice in a cost-effective manner. Our team consists of patent and trademark agents and lawyers who are experts in many technical fields, including chemistry, biotechnology, engineering, telecommunications, physics, molecular biology, and many more. For more than 30 years, we have grown our business largely due to our long-standing relationships with referral sources and word of mouth from our existing clients.
At MBM, we work closely with our referral sources, including corporate law firms, accounting firms, venture capital and private equity groups, and creative design firms, to ensure their clients receive comprehensive guidance on IP matters. Our team offers expert advice on Canadian and global IP protection, helping clients protect their intellectual property assets in Canada and worldwide. Whether it’s patents, trademarks, industrial designs, copyrights, plant breeders’ rights, or trade secrets, our specialized knowledge complements the services offered by our referral partners, providing a seamless solution for their clients’ IP needs. We work with our referral partners in the way that serves them best, in some cases behind the scenes, and in other cases, our referral sources hand off their clients to us, knowing we will provide a high level of IP services they can count on.
Referrals Back
We aim to build long-term, mutually beneficial referral relationships with our colleagues in other professional fields. By fostering strong partnerships with corporate law firms, accounting firms, VC firms, creative agencies, and others, we ensure that their clients receive the best possible IP advice and support. At the same time, for any services outside of MBM’s area of expertise, we would refer work back to our trusted referral partners for our client needs in other areas of law, accounting, taxation, venture capital funding, and creative marketing services.
Value-added Educational Seminars or Webinars
We offer educational opportunities tailored to the needs of both our referral sources and their clients. We conduct IP-specific seminars and joint educational sessions to help firms and their clients understand the complexities of intellectual property law. These sessions can cover a wide range of topics, including IP 101, practical aspects of filing for IP protection, and more industry-specific, complex IP strategy presentations. This collaborative approach ensures that your clients are well-informed while also strengthening the relationship between our firm and our referral partners.
Joint Marketing Initiatives
We are happy to coordinate joint marketing initiatives, including co-hosting local networking and client appreciation events, providing well-written articles on IP topics for your newsletter or blog, and providing value-added educational seminars or webinars to your clients and vice versa.
