Two brand names, two classes, one launch
Financial services · 360° stages: Clear, Secure- Challenge
- A brokerage was launching a trading service and an app under two new names and needed both protected before going public.
- Approach
- A preliminary search confirmed availability. We filed four applications, covering financial services and software for each name, with one roadmap and stage-wise costs agreed upfront.
- Outcome
- A clear filing-to-certificate plan, with the client able to use the ™ symbol from the date of filing.
Opposition · Defend
Stopping a look-alike at the Journal
Hospitality · 360° stage: Defend- Challenge
- A resort found a near-identical name advertised in the Trademarks Journal by an unrelated applicant.
- Approach
- We filed an opposition within the statutory window, supported by evidence of prior use and reputation.
- Outcome
- The client's objection was placed on record within time, so the conflicting mark cannot proceed unchallenged.
Copyright · Defend · Illustrative
A designer reclaims her artwork online
Creative industries · 360° stages: Secure, Defend- Challenge
- An independent designer's illustrations were being sold on products by online pages without permission.
- Approach
- Copyright registration, a formal legal notice and platform takedown reports, backed by dated original files.
- Outcome
- The typical result: infringing listings removed, and future use of the work licensed on written terms.
