Mohr IP Law: Flat-Fee Patents From a Team of PhDs and a Law Professor
Mohr IP Law Solutions built its practice around a specific promise most patent firms don’t make: knowing the fee for a patent application from the outset, with no worry about costs climbing beyond what was quoted. The firm backs that pricing model with attorneys who hold PhDs, engineering professorships, and law faculty credentials — not just USPTO registration.
Origin and Background
Mohr IP Law, P.C. is based at 501 Congress Avenue, Suite 150, Austin, TX 78701, operating since 2009 with additional offices in Portland, Salt Lake City, Denver, and Seattle. The firm’s attorneys include PhDs, registered patent attorneys, engineering professors, and a law professor, and each attorney holds a technical degree in science or engineering, since patent law forms a major component of the practice.
Practice Concentration
The firm’s practice covers utility patents, design patents, provisional and nonprovisional patent applications, trademarks, and copyrights, with attorneys bringing industry experience across chemical engineering, computer engineering, and chemical diagnostics fields. Mohr IP Law’s registered patent attorneys prepare patent applications optimized for USPTO examination, aiming to reduce prosecution expenses and improve enforceability, and the firm offers flat-fee patent applications so clients know costs from the outset rather than facing open-ended hourly billing. See this Austin Intellectual Property directory for how this flat-fee, technically credentialed patent practice compares to hourly-billed IP firms.
Notable Work / Track Record
As a patent prosecution firm serving individual inventors and businesses, Mohr IP Law does not publish a running table of case-specific outcome figures, and Awesome Attorneys did not identify one. The firm’s own published portfolio includes sample patents, trademarks, copyrights, and litigation work across its practice areas, along with client highlight case studies documenting specific client outcomes, though these are self-published examples rather than independently adjudicated results.
Client Voice
Awesome Attorneys did not locate a substantial independent consumer review platform sample for this firm. Its public track record is documented substantially through its own published portfolio and client highlights rather than a high-volume independent review aggregator presence. Awesome Attorneys discloses this gap directly.
Beyond the Courtroom
Several of the firm’s attorneys hold academic positions, including engineering professors and a law professor, reflecting sustained engagement with legal and technical education beyond direct client representation, though Awesome Attorneys did not identify additional named civic or nonprofit board service.
Recognition for This Austin IP Firm
Awesome Attorneys did not identify third-party peer-review awards (such as Super Lawyers, Best Lawyers, or Chambers rankings) for this firm’s attorneys. The firm’s attorneys’ documented technical credentials — PhDs, engineering professorships, and law faculty positions, alongside USPTO patent attorney registration — are independently verifiable through the firm’s own attorney biography pages and represent genuine academic and technical qualifications distinct from formal peer-review recognition.
Texas Legal Backdrop
Patent prosecution before the USPTO operates under federal law regardless of state, and Mohr IP Law’s flat-fee pricing model addresses a genuine practical concern for Texas inventors and small businesses: patent application costs can otherwise escalate significantly under open-ended hourly billing, particularly when an application requires multiple rounds of USPTO office action responses. Texas trade secret protections under the Texas Uniform Trade Secrets Act remain a separate, complementary consideration for inventors deciding what to patent publicly versus protect as a trade secret. None of this is legal advice; a specific patent, trademark, or IP matter should be evaluated by a licensed attorney based on the actual facts involved.
Awesome Attorneys Assessment
Mohr IP Law’s clearest differentiator is the combination of genuinely deep technical credentials — PhD-holding attorneys, engineering professors, and a law professor among its ranks — with flat-fee pricing that gives clients cost certainty most patent firms don’t offer. The honest trade-off is that Awesome Attorneys did not identify third-party peer-review recognition (Super Lawyers, Best Lawyers, Chambers) for this firm’s attorneys, and did not locate a substantial independent review sample to characterize client satisfaction at scale. For an inventor or small business that wants technically credentialed patent counsel with predictable, transparent costs rather than open-ended hourly billing, that flat-fee model paired with genuine academic depth is a strong basis for a shortlist.
