Cursory Search
With a Cursory Search, clients gain valuable insights on the federal registration status of a mark and its distinctiveness. Our dedicated team conducts a meticulous examination to determine if the mark or nearly identical marks are federally registered. Additionally, we provide a legal opinion on the mark's distinctiveness. While this search may rule a mark out from further consideration, it does not provide enough information to fully clear a mark.
Expanded Search
By opting for our Expanded Search, clients gain valuable insights into applications, registrations, and use of similar marks in the marketplace. We conduct thorough research and analysis, identifying potential conflicts and opportunities. An Expanded Search helps clients to make informed decisions on brand strategy, mitigate infringement risks, and stay ahead of market trends. This search helps to identify strategies to grow your brand portfolio while avoiding potential pitfalls.
Comprehensive Search
A Comprehensive Search provides a full examination of various databases to clear a mark for registration, adoption and use. Understanding the legal landscape surrounding your mark helps minimize the chances of infringing and costly legal disputes. With a Comprehensive Search opinion, you can confidently proceed with your branding initiatives, knowing that you have taken the steps to protect your mark and reduce potential risks.
