Why get a trademark?

Most of the brands, logos and slogans you love, know and trust have been registered. A registered mark gives you a presumption of ownership and a presumed right to use the brand nationwide giving you broader protection in courts. Once registered, present yourself as an established and serious business with the ® symbol after your name, logo or slogan. Other benefits include:

  • Presumed validity of the mark if you have to sue

  • Additional remedies in court

  • May increase the value of your company

Why run a search for similar marks?

Before spending your time and money filing an application, you should do a search to see if your mark is already in use or registered by someone else. A search will help avoid obvious duplications of pre-existing marks. If the USPTO rejects your application, the fees to Trademark Engine and the USPTO are not refundable. If your company is just beginning, it’s better to make name changes now rather than invest in building a brand only to learn that you have to change the name and lose all of your goodwill. All packages include a free, federal direct-hit search. We also offer more comprehensive searches that will include wider searches on the federal, state, common law, and global levels. Enjoy a better peace of mind while your trademark application is pending with the USPTO.

Is a lawyer required to file a trademark now?

Due to recent USPTO changes, most filings now require attorney oversight. We've integrated licensed attorneys to ensure your filing is fully compliant.

What does the attorney actually do?

They review your details, prepare your USPTO paperwork, and reduce the risk of errors or rejections.

Will this cost me more?

Nope! The price still starts at just $89— the difference is added expertise at no extra charge.

Who are your attorneys?

Experienced trademark lawyers licensed in the U.S. You'll see who's helping you and can read about their background on our Meet the Team page.

What about my slogan, do companies usually register that?

If investing heavily in a marketing campaign with a slogan, a company might consider registering that slogan in connection with the goods or services they offer well. Like all trademarks, a slogan you wish to register should be inherently distinctive and creative or have developed a secondary meaning. In other words, “really good pizza” probably can’t be trademarked unless that saying has become so famous that most consumers associate it with a certain pizza brand.

What information will I need?

Initiating the process will usually take anywhere from 5 to 10 minutes on the Trademark Engine website. For a typical application, be prepared to provide at least the following:

  • The actual mark you want to use.
  • The full legal name and address of the owner of the mark.
  • (If your mark is ""In Use"") A copy of the specimen which is an example that shows you are using the mark in commerce. This could be a picture of your product or a website advertising your service.
  • A category of the goods or services where you are using your mark from our drop down menu and a description of your goods or services.
  • (If your mark is ""In Use"")The date you first used the mark in commerce and the date you first shared the mark anywhere."

This legal fee is separate from—and in addition to—the cited package price and any government filing fees.
