Trade Mark
A trademark is a vital business asset that protects your brand identity and sets your products or services apart in the marketplace. At Sangolli & Co., we take a results-oriented approach to provide specialized and experienced trademark services tailored to your needs. With an industry-specific understanding coupled with a proactive approach, we ensure your intellectual property is secured, protected, and managed efficiently.
Whether you’re a startup or an established business, our collaborative mindset ensures we guide you through every step of the trademark process, helping you build a strong foundation for your brand’s success.
Our Trademark Services Include:
1. Trademark Search
Before applying for a trademark, it’s crucial to conduct a comprehensive trademark search. This ensures that your desired trademark is unique and not already in use. Our experts perform a thorough search through databases to assess the availability of your trademark and reduce the risk of legal challenges down the road.
2. Trademark Registration
Once your trademark is available, we assist you in filing a trademark application with the appropriate government authorities (such as the United States Patent and Trademark Office or the European Union Intellectual Property Office). Our team ensures that the application is correctly prepared and submitted, giving you the best chance for approval.
3. Trademark Monitoring
After registration, it’s important to monitor your trademark to ensure that no one else is infringing on your rights. Our monitoring services include keeping an eye on new trademark applications and marketplace activities to identify potential conflicts with your trademark.
4. Trademark Protection
If your trademark is infringed upon or misused by another party, we help protect your rights through cease-and-desist letters, negotiations, and legal actions when necessary. We also assist in enforcement actions to stop unauthorized use of your trademark.
5. Trademark Renewals
Trademarks need to be renewed periodically to maintain protection. Our trademark renewal service ensures that you stay compliant with deadlines and avoid losing your trademark rights.
6. Trademark Licensing and Assignment
If you want to license your trademark or transfer it to another party, we assist in drafting licensing agreements and handling the assignment process to ensure all legal requirements are met.
7. Trademark Disputes and Litigation
In the event of a trademark dispute, our team provides expert legal guidance. We help resolve conflicts either through negotiation or litigation, depending on the situation, and work toward protecting your trademark rights in court if necessary.
