How we ranked Tempe intellectual property lawyers

We scored 27 Tempe intellectual property lawyers on nine factors, weighted as shown. A law firm is ranked when its practice area is confirmed and it has 3 or more Google reviews or a claimed profile. A law firm with no Google reviews scores zero on rating, review volume and recency. Other unknown factors are left out, not counted as zero. Scores last refreshed November 9, 2026.

Paid placement never changes a rank or score. Attorney advertising businesses are paid, labelled, limited to 3 and shown above the ranking, outside it.

How to choose an intellectual property lawyer

  1. Check the lawyer’s status and any public discipline in the state bar or law society directory.
  2. Ask how many intellectual property law matters the lawyer handles each year, and who at the firm will do the work.
  3. Get the fee arrangement in writing: hourly, flat or contingency, and which costs are charged on top.
  4. Ask how and how often the firm will update you, and how fast it answers calls and emails.
  5. Read recent reviews for how the firm communicated and billed, not only for outcomes.
  6. For patents, check the lawyer is registered to practice before the patent office and has worked in your technical field.
  7. Meet more than one firm; many offer a short first consultation, sometimes free.

Questions to ask an intellectual property lawyer

  • How would you approach a matter like mine, and what are the realistic options?
  • How do you charge, and what will the total likely cost?
  • Who will be my main contact, and how quickly do you reply?
  • Are you registered with the patent office?
  • Which official fees are not included in your fee?
  • Is there any conflict of interest that would stop you representing me?

A fee that is a share of the money recovered, paid only if there is a recovery. Common in injury cases; not allowed for criminal defense or for securing a divorce.

Conflict check
The search a firm runs before taking a matter to make sure it does not represent someone on the other side.

Yes, if they are within 50 mi of the Tempe city center, our service radius for intellectual property lawyers. Each listing shows where the law firm is based and how far away it is. Proximity is 5% of the LFR Score, so a nearby law firm gets a small edge.

By LFR Score only, from public data on reviews, practice focus, office location and hours. Firms labelled “Attorney advertising” paid for that placement; payment never changes a rank, and a rank is not an endorsement.

Does a lawyer need an office in Tempe?

No, but the lawyer must be licensed in your state (or, for federal matters such as immigration, in some state). A local office makes meetings and court appearances easier, so proximity is one of our factors.
