Why do a Trademark search?

A trademark search is a vital part of the process. It is through the searching process that we can reveal whether your proposed mark is capable of trademark registration. The raison d'etre of the search is to ascertain whether or not there exists an identical or similar mark registered in the same or similar classes that you seek protection in.

If you do not carry out a search then you are applying for a trademark 'blind' and significantly increase the risks of losing all fees attached to the application if it fails.

What do I get with a Trade Mark search?

We conduct a thorough trademark search of the relevant databases to identify any existing identical or similar trade marks. We write to you with exactly what (if any) trade marks we have found and an indication of how we feel these marks will affect a trade mark registration application for your brand. Once you have had time to read our advice we offer a free of charge telephone conference to help you make the decision as to how you should continue.

We are able to offer a search and registration service for international trademarks through the Madrid Protocol for UK and EU trademarks. Our FREE trade mark consultation service to answer any UK and EU trademark registration questions that you may have.

International Trademark Registration

The Madrid Protocol is is a system for international trademarks registration which allows you to make one application in one country initially. Then a worldwide trademarks application can be made for registration in all other countries listed on the application form which are member states of the Madrid Protocol.

For example if you have filed a UK or EU trade mark registration application you can apply under the Madrid Protocol for several other applications without waiting to see if your initial application has been successful.
