Preparation of Trademark Applications

We often can relatively rapidly determine if a mark is likely to be deemed federally registerable, and prepare and file a suitable trademark application.

Generally, the steps for preparing a federal trademark application are:

1. Determine the mark and the associated goods/services;

2. Identify the type of mark for which to seek registration;

3. Determine the International Classification(s) for the mark;

4. Draft an identification of the goods/services associated with the mark;

5. Obtain and analyze a Registerability Search;

6. Adjust the classifications and/or identifications as necessary; and

7. Complete and file an electronic application.
