We advise our clients that it is reasonable to begin the registration of a product or service mark with the research procedure, in order to find out whether the particular mark or a similar one has already been registered or filed. This way, promptly and with minimal costs, our clients can assess the chance for trademark registration and avoid unnecessary costs in cases where protection would not be granted.
We represent clients in the registration procedure from preparation and filing of the application, through possible responses to official actions and provisional refusal of the international applications, until reviewing of the trademark certificate. We look after the deadlines for renewal of the trademark and, if necessary, prudently watch whether third parties file or register marks that are identical or similar with the trademarks of our clients.
