Engineering Excellence: How Haynes Boone is Evaluating Enhancements to Patent Practice with Solve Intelligence

About HaynesBoone

Haynes Boone is an Am Law 100 law firm with a reputation for excellence that spans over 50 years. With nearly 800lawyers across 20 offices worldwide, the firm is a powerhouse in energy, technology, and financial services.

Haynes Boone has built one of the most formidable intellectual property practices in the country. Consistently ranked among the top firms for patent prosecution and a recognized leader in PTAB trials, IP litigation, and other disputes, their IP team develops and manages the critical intangible assets and product clearances of Fortune 500 companies and dynamic innovators alike.

Behind this scale is a culture of collaboration and a commitment to efficiency: a shift from traditional silos to integrated, technology-driven workflows that empower attorneys to deliver greater value to clients.

That same transformation is now helping refine how Haynes Boone’s patent prosecution practice operates.

Partnership

Haynes Boone’s practice is continuing to evolve to help deliver excellent results for our clients, through their evaluation of and partnering with Solve Intelligence to help improve the current generation of available tools.

A broad testing program brought together prosecutors and technical experts from across the firm, ensuring that critical feedback is being provided to Solve and included in future development to meet the rigorous standards of a top-tier global firm.

Below are two key use cases where Solve might be useful to support client needs:

●     Patent Application Drafting: Solve assists in generating detailed language for analysis and use in patent specifications, e.g., based on proposed claims and related supporting documentation, which helps ensure consistent terminology and reduces the time required to produce a high-quality first draft for patent practitioner review and further drafting.

●     Office Action Response: Solve summarizes examiners’ rejections, identifies key rejection grounds, and suggests counter-arguments for patent prosecutor analysis and drafting, streamlining the response process for complex prosecution matters.

Solve’s flexibility has made it a catalyst for digital transformation across patent prosecution practices likeHaynes Boone’s—matching the firm’s global reach with next-generation legal intelligence.

Impact

By automating a portion of the labor-intensive aspects of drafting, attorneys can now spend more time editing and improving U.S. PTO submissions, complex legal strategy, portfolio management, and partnering with clients.

The result is a prosecution function that operates with the same rigor and efficiency as the industries they serve:precise, data-driven, and forward-looking.

For Haynes Boone, the transformation is about more than productivity—it’s about positioning the firm as a pioneer in the AI era to best support their valued clients.

As Haynes Boone continues to grow its global footprint, its team stands as a model for what’s next: a smart, connected law firm that scales precision, insight, and impact.

The European Patent Office has published a preview of its Guidelines for Examination, effective April 2026.

Drafting for the EPO: How AI Can Make the New EPO–IP Australia PCT Pilot a Success

The EPO and IP Australia are launching a new PCT pilot programme on 1 March 2026 which will allow Australian applicants to designate the EPO as their International Searching and Preliminary Examining Authorities (ISA and IPEA). 

Given the EPO’s rigorous approach to clarity and support requirements, for this pilot programme to succeed, Australian applicants and patent practitioners will have to adapt to draft international applications with EPO-specific requirements in mind.

The launch of this pilot programme will add a new layer of complexity — (and opportunity) for patent practitioners. In a landscape where jurisdictional nuance can shape international search and examination outcomes, AI‑augmented tools such as Solve Intelligence's Patent CopilotTM are becoming increasingly valuable.
