We follow a disciplined three-step workflow to ensure your brand assets are legally defensible and submission-ready.

We review visual details to ensure compliance with USPTO filing standards.
We confirm consistent brand use across all assets to support examination.
Process Overview
In the trademark process, even a minor change in a logo's font or color can be viewed by an examiner as a 'material alteration,' potentially voiding your entire application.
Word Marks vs. Design Marks: A word mark protects the text regardless of font; a design mark protects the specific logo. Choosing the wrong one can leave your brand vulnerable to competitors.
The Mutilation Rule: If the mark you use on your products differs from the one you filed at the USPTO, the examiner may refuse your application for failing to show proper use.
Color Claims & Disclaimers: Specifying colors in a filing creates narrower protection. We help you decide whether a black-and-white filing offers broader, more flexible rights.
Procedural Refusals: Low-resolution files or marks containing prohibited symbols (like national flags or government seals) will result in an immediate Office Action.
Inconsistent Evidence: If your website shows one version of your logo and your packaging shows another, the USPTO may challenge your continuous use claims.
Brand Registry Rejections: Amazon and other platforms require a 1:1 match between your registration and your storefront. Even a slight stylization mismatch can block your enrollment.
Still have questions?
Straightforward answers about trademark filing, USPTO fees, and support options.
The $45 service fee covers intake, preparation support, and filing guidance for your trademark application. USPTO government filing fees are separate and are paid per class of goods or services.
Usually, each mark should be filed in its own application. A business name, logo, and slogan may need separate filings if you want each element protected on its own.
Yes. If you have a bona fide plan to use the mark, you may be able to file on an intent-to-use basis. The USPTO will still require proof of use before registration is completed.
An Office Action is a USPTO request for clarification, amendment, or legal response. We can review the issue and help prepare the response needed to keep the application moving.
Amazon Brand Registry generally requires an active registered trademark or eligible pending application. We help align your filing details with marketplace enrollment requirements.
Similar marks can sometimes coexist when the goods, services, or customer channels are different. A trademark search helps identify risk before you file.
