Application Type
Congress regulates Interstate Commerce, therefore regulates trademarks. We will determine if your application meets commerce requirements & which application type is required
Date Specifications
Every trademark contains 2 very important dates - the date in which it was first used anywhere and the date in which it began interstate commerce. We will help determine the dates based on good evidence
Classifications
We will determine which International Classifications best fit your mark. Depending on the current products you sell and the services you provide, your mark may need to apply in multiple international classifications
Description Drafting
Careful description drafting is critical to a successful trademark application. We often plan careful descriptions during the clearance phase as a part of the overall risk management plan for moderate or high risk applications
Product Outlook
In addition to the international classifications you currently sell products and provide services, you may be able to apply in classifications for future products and services, depending on careful timing considerations
Evidence - Specimen
Upon examination by a U.S. Trademark Attorney, your specimens and evidence of commerce must meet several intricate requirements. We will work with you and your designers to ensure your evidentiary submissions are accepted
