USPTO trademark registration
A clearance search before you spend money, sensible class selection, then the filing itself — so the brand you are building is actually yours to keep.
How we work
- Fixed fee — Our price is published. State fees passed through at cost.
- No false promises — We never guarantee approvals that belong to a third party.
- One manager — A named person who knows your file, not a ticket queue.
- KYC before filing — Verification up front is why our applications get taken seriously.
Forming a company does not protect your brand
Registering an LLC gives you an entity name on a state register. It does not stop anyone else in the United States using your brand name, and it will not help you take down a copycat listing on Amazon or a hijacked social handle.
A federal trademark does. It gives you nationwide rights in your class, access to brand-protection programmes on major marketplaces, and a real basis for enforcement.
The order matters: search first. Filing an application for a name that is already taken means losing the government fee, which is non-refundable, and starting again.
What the service covers
How the process really goes
Search
We check existing registrations and pending applications for conflicts. If the name is high-risk we tell you before you spend the filing fee — that is the point of the step.
File
Classes chosen to match what you actually sell, with a specimen that meets USPTO requirements. Both are common rejection reasons.
Examination
A USPTO examining attorney reviews the application. If they raise an office action, we help you respond within the deadline.

USPTO timelineWhat clients ask about this
Do I need a U.S. company to file?
No, foreign applicants can file. However, foreign-domiciled applicants must be represented by a U.S.-licensed attorney at the USPTO — we coordinate that where it applies.
How long does registration take?
The USPTO process runs in months, not weeks, and the timeline is entirely theirs. We will give you the current realistic range rather than a marketing figure.
What if my application is refused?
Office actions are common and often answerable. We help you respond. Government filing fees are not refundable if a mark is ultimately refused, which is why the search comes first.
Is the search a guarantee?
No. A clearance search substantially reduces risk but cannot rule out unregistered common-law rights. We will be straight with you about what it does and does not cover.
