Don't Risk Your Brand. Hire a Lawyer for Trademark Protection.
Why a Lawyer for Trademark Registration Is a Strategic Advantage
Strategic Planning
We begin with a comprehensive search to identify any conflicting marks. We then analyse potential objections based on distinctiveness and help you choose a strong, registrable mark that will stand up to scrutiny.
Application Drafting
The application is drafted with precision, ensuring your goods and services are correctly classified and described. This attention to detail helps prevent costly amendments or responses to adverse reports down the line.
Adverse Report Management
Should an adverse report arise, we handle the entire response process. We draft legal submissions and gather the necessary evidence to overcome objections, aiming to turn a potential rejection into a successful registration.
Long-Term Protection
We provide advice on maintaining your mark, protecting it from infringement, and expanding your protection as your business grows.
What an Attorney for Trademark Knows That a DIY Applicant Doesn't
The formal process of trademark registration is governed by specific legal principles that can be challenging to navigate without specialised knowledge. An examiner’s report is not a simple checklist; it is a legal document based on the Trademarks Act 1995 and a body of case law.
Here are some key points to consider:
Nuances of Legal Objections
The examiner's report may cite specific legal sections, such as Section 41 (lack of distinctiveness) or Section 44 (conflicting marks). A professional can interpret these objections and craft a targeted legal argument that is tailored to the specific issues raised.
The Weight of Evidence
When evidence is requested to support your application, its format and content matter. A legal professional knows what constitutes compelling evidence of use or reputation and how to present it effectively. The difference between a simple letter of use and a formal declaration of use is significant, and we advise on which is most appropriate for a given situation.
