Trademark Search

The team at CarveIP helps in conducting trademark searches in order for businesses and individuals to assess the availability of a trademark before they invest time and money into branding and registering it.
Why to conduct a Trademark Search?

1. Avoid Legal Conflicts: A trademark search helps identify any existing trademarks that might conflict with your proposed trademark, reducing the risk of infringement. If a trademark is already registered, you could face legal challenges, cease-and-desist orders, or be forced to rebrand.
2. Save Time and Money: A comprehensive search helps you avoid investing in branding, marketing, or product development only to find out later that your trademark is already in use or too similar to an existing one.
3. Ensure Exclusivity By searching, you can identify if your trademark is unique enough to stand out in the market and avoid confusion with other products or services.
4. Increase Registration Chances: A thorough search can improve the likelihood that your trademark will be accepted by the trademark office, as it ensures no one else has rights to a similar mark in the same category of goods or services.

Trademark registration

Our experienced team of advocates and trademark agents assist you to officially register your trademark (such as a name, logo, slogan, or brand) with the relevant government authority to secure legal protection for your brand. By registering your trademark, you gain exclusive rights to use it in connection with specific goods or services, and you can take legal action against others who infringe on your rights. Trademark registration is a crucial step for businesses looking to protect their brand identity.

Trademark portfolio management

Our team helps you in organizing, overseeing, and maintaining a collection of trademarks owned by an individual or business. For companies with multiple trademarks, effective portfolio management is crucial to ensure that trademarks are protected, enforceable, and strategically aligned with the company’s business goals. This involves both monitoring and optimizing the use, registration, and maintenance of trademarks.

Trademarks prosecution

Trust CarveIP in helping you to apply for and secure a trademark registration, as well as in handling any issues that arise during the examination and approval process. Our goal of trademark prosecution is to ensure that a trademark is granted best legal protection and it becomes an officially registered trademark. The prosecution process typically involves interaction between the applicant and the relevant trademark office. This process can be complex, and often requires the applicant/attorney to respond to office actions, objections, and other legal or procedural challenges.
