Trademark Search

Find out whether a trademark is available.

Clients can choose from two search options:

"Knockout" Search: $50. This is a quick search that exclusively checks the USPTO's database for the exact wording of your desired trademark. It does not check for similar spellings, similar marks, or other marks that might have the potential to cause confusion. It does not search for domain names, use in commerce, product lines, social media, or presence in international databases. A knockout search returns a simple "yes" or "no."

Comprehensive Search: $200. This is our premier due diligence search that searches through the USPTO database, Official Gazette, domestic and international databases such as WIPO, EUIPO, and the Global Brand Database, ICANN domain registrations, social media, use in commerce, product lines, and more. This search returns a legal opinion on the likelihood of registration success, the likelihood of opposition by other trademark owners based on past litigation, and the likelihood of issues with domain name registrations.

We will not attempt a Premium trademark registration without first conducting a Comprehensive Search and confirming a high likelihood of registration success.

Trademark Registration

Register your trademark with the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

Clients can choose from two registration services:

Standard: $1,500 for one trademark class registration and $500 for each additional filing class. This cost includes the USPTO's filing fee of $250-$350 per class. This option does not include additional steps, such as dividing classes or responding to Office Actions.

Premium: $4,000 for one trademark class registration and $500 for each additional filing class. This cost includes the USPTO's filing fee of $250-$350 per class and any additional steps, such as dividing classes and responding to Office Actions. We stand behind this risk-free option with a full, 100% money-back guarantee, including the USPTO filing fee(s).

The difference is that Premium includes our successful registration 100% guarantee and full assurance that you will not incur any further costs. Clients who select Standard may incur additional costs. Your risk tolerance will ultimately determine which option is right for you. 

Extension petitions are not included in the guarantee. Trademark Search is a separate service not included in the money-back guarantee.
