For Corporations
Well established high tech companies have their own IP departments. However, smaller companies without enough IP issues to justify a full time IP person, often add IP responsibility on top of other responsibilities of the Chief Technology Officer or Head of the R&D department. They will then handle IP tasks like coordinating the external attorneys on top of his/her typically busy agenda.
