Exhibit A
Patent Attorneys work in San Jose
San Jose sits at the centre of the largest concentration of patent filing activity in the country, and the search demand for patent attorneys here reflects that. Queries come from independent inventors in the city, from engineers at the hardware and semiconductor companies along the 101 and 237 corridors, and from founders who need a provisional filed before a funding round. The searches are specific: patent application help, provisional patent filing, patent prosecution, IP strategy for startups. Paid search on the head terms is competitive because national IP firms bid into the San Jose market alongside local practices. The firms taking the organic results tend to be the ones publishing steadily on the technical and procedural questions their clients type before they ever call a lawyer.
