Trademark Preparation & Prosecution
Our intellectual property attorney applies for registered trademarks for companies in the United States and its territories. We also work on behalf of non-US businesses that choose to protect their trademarks in the U.S. Once approved, a U.S. registration provides a basis for our firm to register your trademark in other countries.

Why do You Need Professional Trademark Preparation & Prosecution
- Before you integrate your trademark into your company branding strategy, you must make certain that you’re not infringing on someone else’s trademark.
- If you move forward and begin using a trademark that’s confusingly similar to another company’s, the owners could tie you up in costly trademark infringement litigation.
- If you don’t register your trademark, you might not have the legal right to stop someone else from using your mark.
- If a court determines that you willfully copied another company’s mark, they have the discretion to award treble damages.

What About Online Trademark Services?
Before you choose an online option, you must decide if your trademark warrants more focused attention from an IP legal professional. Many companies that choose an online option fail to receive registration of their mark and then seek the services of an IP professional. This results in a waste of time, money and possibly the ability of ever registering your mark.

- They provide a “legal portal” with “automated software” for those who want to prepare their own legal documents.
- When you complete a legal form, they do not review your answers for “legal sufficiency.”
