California attorneys assist with trademark registration

You can prove your ownership of a trademark by registering it with the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO). At the time of your application, you must file on a use-in-commerce or intent-to-use basis, meaning you are either currently using the mark or have a ready-market plan for its use. Our attorneys are skilled at filing detailed applications with the USPTO that fully satisfy all of the complex requirements. We conduct a thorough search of the database to determine if your proposed mark is already in use. We then assist you through each stage of the application process, including clearly describing your mark and the goods or services it represents.

Proven litigators defend your business from trademark infringement

The use by another company of your trademark can lead to lost profits and a tarnished reputation. When a company’s similar name, style, lettering, picture or other branding causes confusion, you may have a valid infringement claim. Our lawyers will work to stop the unauthorized use of your trademark by obtaining an injunction against the infringer, and we may pursue damages for unfair competition when that is in your best interests.
