Frequently Asked Questions

Do you represent me before the CIPO?

Only for Full Service orders. For Light Touch, because we offer top-tier lawyer help at a low fixed cost, we only help with the hard part of your trademark application. This means that we do not:

·       become your Agent of Record to handle correspondence on your behalf;

·       monitor your application(s) after filing to registration

Permalink

Does your name go on the application?

Only for Full Service orders. For Light Touch, your trademark application exclusively identifies you (or your business) as the applicant (trademark owner). We only assist you with the hard part of setting up your trademark application.  

Permalink

What happens if there’s a conflict identified in my search?

If a search report reveals a conflict with your proposed trademark, we will always offer a phone meeting to discuss the issue and suggest potential strategies for success.

Permalink

How long does it take for my comprehensive trademark search to be completed?

We typically deliver our comprehensive trademark search results within 5 to 7 business days.

Permalink

When will my trademark application be ready?

Please allow 5 to 7 business days for your draft trademark application to be completed. Once the draft is ready, we’ll send it to you for your review and final approval.

Permalink

What if I can’t file my trademark application because of a conflict identified in my search?

If you wish to stop the application process part way, you will still receive an expertly drafted application that you can then carry forward with your new trademark. We can also counsel you on choosing a trademark to avoid conflicts.

Permalink

What happens after I place my order?

Once your order is confirmed, we will be in touch within 5-7 business days to schedule a follow-up call with one of our trademark experts to walk you through the completed search and application, and to confirm your trademark details.

Permalink

What if I don’t know which option to choose?

You can compare options on our Pricing page. If you still need help, one of our trademark experts would be happy to speak with you by phone to help you determine the best trademark protection for your business. You can book a 15-minute consultation by calling 1-855-286-7467.
