Trademark Search and Advice Report

Step 1 of Registration Process

Comprehensive search of the Trademark Journals to see if you can trademark your business and brand name before you pay any step 2 registration fees which are non-refundable from the Intellectual Property Office.

Before we apply for trademark registration we need to understand your business and brand name trademark position, knowing this information mitigates the risk of costly trademark registration re-submissions.

The report risk assesses the likelihood of opposition from any earlier and identical or similar marks we may find in the UK and international registries, this saves you time and money in relation to step 2 which is the preparation and filing of your application with the relevant agencies.

Our search report covers both the UK and international trademark registries.

Benefits

❂ Our two step approach means we save you time and money, if the report scores AMBER, AMBER/RED or RED this indicates there’s a medium to high chance of opposition from any earlier and identical or similar trademarks we find. Having and knowing this information allows you to make an informed business decision on whether or not to move to step 2 of the process.

❂ We also offer a more competitive professional handling fee compared to other trademark and IP firms who offer free search services but then inflate their registration costs.

Additionally their automated search applications are too simplistic and sometimes inaccurate, these automated services don’t consider variable searches, whereas all our searches are completed by a member of our trademark and IP team which enables us to produce detailed and accurate reports.
