Trademark
What is a Trademark?
Why do you need us?
Why must you get your Trademark registered?
On the other hand, once registered, you can take strong and expedited action against any other entity that oversteps your bounds or uses your brand name without your permission. Needless to say, you also derive the side benefit of being able to use the symbol ® (if registered) and symbol ™ (while your application is pending) which already makes your brand name look more authentic and in command.
What can we do for you?
