Let's talk legal. Legal help when getting a trademark is critical. The go or no go call between researched conflicts or similarities can affect your legal use in sound, appearance or meaning, based upon trademark law and is affected by your service or product channel of distribution, related goods or services and famous names too. Given that comprehensive IP research reports often run from 300 - 500 pages, there is a LOT to consider to determine if any client's mark is in fact LEGALLY CLEAR or not. This is an issue every new trademark applicant faces when starting their business or protecting their IP rights after already being in business. IF another company has first use rights under common law or expanded rights under trademark law, they have 6 years to enforce their rights. Governments only research their own databases, NOT the other 85% of reality out there in commerce that do not have Federal trademark rights. There are 3 types of ways to get legal assistance when getting a trademark. Trademark attorneys, attorneys and non-trademark attorneys like Urgent Trademark. You can tell by the fee you are being quoted as to IF your work will be done well or not. Trademark attorneys normally charge $300 - $400/hour, and will total $2000 to $3000 to secure a trademark because they too, like us will do a true comprehensive IP research report to make sure your mark is legally clear, before writing your trademark application and submitting it. Then there are attorneys who dabble in trademarks. They are half price because they will only spend 2 - 3 hours on your trademark checking the Internet and doing a 2% direct hit search at the USPTO or CIPO. Not enough! IF they do more, they don't do enough when you finally see their 5 page, or 50 page light search - demonstrating their incompetence in not paying for enough databases or spending time writing multiple research strategies to draw similarities in sound, appearance or meaning for you. This is important because they are shorting your needs to meet a lower price point for you. Make no mistake these attorneys get lots of refusals and future cease and desists. Call us with any attorney's name and we'll show you their track record of success. The point isn't about any attorney's livelihood, it is about yours. Your successful obtainment of a legally clear name is essential to be done right. You need the comprehensive IP research reports to make sure you are legally clear. Then there is us.
