TELL EM' - "BACK OFF MY BRAND" -

TRADEMARKS

You don’t need a statement graphic T to make a statement. You can let your brand do the talking. And once you have a brand you love, you need to tell others to back off with authority.

START HERE WITH YOUR SEARCH

You have some minor protections when you start using a brand name, but to really protect it you must file a trademark registration application with the USPTO.

Why File Your Mark

Tell others to back off

Once you come up with a fab name, you gotta stop others from using it. And to do that, you need a registered trademark.

Protect Your Investment

Once you’ve become known for a name, making a change can sting. Registering your mark can help ensure you’re free and clear to use that name.

Increase Your Brand Value

Having free and clear ownership of your marks also increases the value of your business, which is huge if you ever plan to sell.

THE TM PROCESS

1. Search

First, we do our search (as outlined above)

2. File Application

If the search is all clear, or relatively clear, it's time to file with the USPTO. This is where the bulk of our work is done. If you opt to hire us to file your application, the rate is $1,250 for your first mark, and $1,000 for each additional mark.

3. Examination

After you file, an examiner from the USPTO will review your application. Nowadays, it’s typically taking 8-12 months. If the examiner sees any issues with your application, they will issue an office action. We handle minor office actions in your scope of work. Any major issues or arguments are billed at an additional fee.

4. Publication

Once the examiner gives your mark the thumbs up, it goes to publication giving others the opportunity to dispute your mark for about 3 months.

If your mark makes it through publication, it will officially be registered on the primary registry. This is where our scope of work ends.
