US Trademark Search & Registration

The United States trademark registration is one of the most complex in the world. We know all the little tricks to register your US trademark quickly with the lowest risk of getting a complex objection.

With the many forms to navigate, you can trust our firm’s experience for your US trademark filing needs.

Important highlights about the US trademark registration process:

  • Your trademark is reviewed on absolute and relative grounds and it can be refused if there is a similar mark or if your mark is descriptive or deceptive.

  • There is a Supplemental Register in the US so if your trademark is descriptive or a common surname you can still register it (unlike in many other countries).

  • Trademarks on the Supplemental Register will NOT allow you to get in the Brand Registry on Amazon.

  • Objections are very common. The best way to minimize one is to do a proper trademark clearance search and file an application without any errors.

  • You need to submit proof of use for your products/services before your trademark registers; however, you can file a trademark based on an intent-to-use basis, aka “future use”.

  • Opposition period is only 30 days.

  • Trademark registration process is about 14-18 months if everything goes well.

  • Trademark registration process may take longer time especially if an objection is received or if applicant is unable to file a Statement of use in time.

We have very knowledgeable and experienced US attorneys, who work with us on a contract basis. We will be able to handle all aspects of uspto trademark registration, except for opposition and litigation.
