We recommend all new applicants go through our comprehensive search. Trademark infringement is more complicated than two businesses having the same names. It occurs when two names are likely to cause confusion with consumers. Our attorney-conducted search is much more comprehensive and complicated than a laypersons search.

Conducting a search and filing the trademark application doesn’t take very long at all. A search is usually conducted in approximately five days, and the application can be filed in approximately a week after we discuss the results of the search.

The timeline for the entire process can take anywhere from 6 to 18 months.  There are no guarantees your application will be approved, however, Attorney Liza Ann discusses the results of the search explains the level of risk and potential hurdles that you may be facing PRIOR to filing the application. You file a registration only after you are fully educated about the process and level of risk.

Trademark  registration filings are based on whether the item is a good or service. To adequately protect your brand, you will want to file an application in every class that’s applicable to your business. During the search we determine how many classes you are applicable for your business. At that time, we discuss in detail and you decide which classes you would like to file.
