Frequently Asked Questions

Q1. Why should I register my trademark or logo?
A registered trademark legally protects your brand and gives you exclusive rights to use it. It prevents others from copying or misusing your brand identity.

Q2. How long does a trademark registration last?
A trademark registration is valid for 10 years and can be renewed indefinitely.

Q3. Can I register my business name and logo under one application?
No, each distinct mark (word, logo, or combination) requires a separate application.

Q4. What if my trademark is already in use by someone else?
We conduct a prior search to identify conflicts and suggest modifications or new strategies to help secure your brand legally.
