Exhibit A
Patent Attorneys work in Nashville
Nashville has a steady base of intellectual property work. The city's healthcare companies, music and entertainment businesses, universities and a growing startup scene all generate filings, and the firms that handle them sit across the downtown core, Midtown, Green Hills and out toward Franklin. Search demand for patent attorney terms in Nashville is modest compared with consumer trades, so the number of firms competing for each search is small and the paid search market around it is thin. The firms taking that work are mostly independent practices and small partnerships rather than franchises. That means the demand available is concentrated in a limited set of searches, and a firm that publishes consistently on the right terms can hold a visible place in them.
