What happens if I try to log in to the IP Law Portal without logging in to Equinox?

You need to be logged in to your Equinox user account to use the IP Law Portal. If you try to access the IP Law Portal when you're not logged in, you’ll see a message telling you that you need to log in to your Equinox account before using the IP Law Portal.

I'm logged into Equinox but I'm getting the error screen. Why's this?

If you're logged into Equinox but are seeing the above error message when trying to access the IP Law Portal, this usually means your IP Law Portal session has timed out due to inactivity and logged you out. Click the IP Portal logo in your Equinox system to relaunch the IP Law Portal.
