How Long Does Trademark Registration Take?
The timeline tends to range from 12 to 18 months. The United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) maintains a strict review process. After you submit trademark applications, an examining attorney reviews the file for compliance. If the office raises objections, the process can take longer. We use our experience to anticipate these issues and respond quickly to keep your application moving forward.
What Is The Difference Between ™ and ®?
You can use the ™ symbol at any time to claim common law rights in a mark. It tells competitors that you intend to treat the name or logo as a trademark. The ® symbol is reserved exclusively for marks that have reached final federal registration. Using the circle R before you receive an official certificate from the trademark office can result in legal complications.
Can You Trademark A Business Name?
You can trademark a business name if it is a source identifier for goods or services. A name that simply describes what you do may struggle to gain protection. The strongest trademarks are unique, suggestive or completely made up. We help you assess the strength of your business name. If your name meets the legal requirements, we can begin the registration process.
How Much Does Trademark Registration Cost?
The cost involves government filing fees and legal fees. Government fees are typically calculated per class of goods or services. Our boutique structure allows us to offer transparent and competitive pricing. We eliminate the heavy overhead of traditional firms to provide better value. We will discuss the anticipated costs with you upfront so you can budget effectively.
What If Someone Infringes On Your Trademark?
If someone uses a confusingly similar mark, you have the right to take action. Our team typically begins with a formal cease-and-desist letter to resolve the matter quickly. If the infringer refuses to stop, we are prepared to pursue litigation in Oklahoma City or federal courts nationwide.
