Begin Your Brand’s Journey with Confidence

Welcome to the first crucial step in protecting your brand: the trademark search. 

I’m Michael Jones, a skilled trademark search attorney committed to ensuring that your brand’s symbols, names, and logos are unique and legally defensible. At Jones Intellectual Property, I recognize that a comprehensive trademark search is critical to creating a secure and strategic foundation for your brand.

Why a Comprehensive Trademark Search Is Indispensable

A thorough trademark search does more than identify potential conflicts; it sets a solid foundation for your trademark application and your brand’s long-term strength.  Conducting this step early helps avoid costly legal disputes and possible rebranding efforts. 

Here’s why working with a seasoned trademark search lawyer like myself, Michael Jones, is crucial:

Proactive Conflict Avoidance

Leveraging advanced technologies and comprehensive databases, I conduct extensive searches to scan for existing trademarks that could pose a conflict. This proactive approach helps identify potential obstacles early, maximizing your trademark application’s success while minimizing the risk of costly legal disputes or the need for rebranding down the line. My role is to deliver expert guidance that protects your brand and preserves your resources.

Strategic Risk Management

I provide search reports and opinions, including detailed risk assessment reports that outline potential legal obstacles. These reports provide guidance and insight, allowing you to make informed, strategic decisions about your brand—whether to proceed, adjust, or reconsider your trademark to avoid future legal complications.

Optimized Trademark Registrability

My approach goes beyond delivering search results. I provide legal guidance on enhancing your trademark’s registrability, whether through adjustments to design, goods, or services, which bolsters your trademark application’s registerability.

Our Trademark Search Services

In-Depth Trademark Search and Analysis

We tailor each trademark search to your brand’s specific needs and market context, including:

  • Comprehensive Searches: Searching national and international databases, state registries, and non-traditional sources, like online marketplaces and social media platforms, to uncover potential conflicts.
  • Analysis of Similar Marks: Conflicts stretch beyond identical matches, so my analysis does as well. Trademarks don’t need to be identical to be confusingly similar; they can also be alike phonetically, visually, or conceptually. My analysis takes into account more than just identical matches.
  • Industry-Specific Searches: Different industries have unique market landscapes. Some sectors are crowded, making certain terms less distinctive. Additionally, words considered generic in one industry may hold unique significance in another. I tailor your search strategy to address these nuances, ensuring that your trademark stands out and aligns with the specific considerations of your sector.

Detailed Reporting and Strategic Consultation

Following the search, I provide:

  • Transparent, Comprehensive Reporting: You’ll receive a detailed report outlining potential conflicts and risks associated with your proposed trademark. This report is easy to understand, regardless of your familiarity with trademark law.
  • Strategic Consultation Session: We’ll discuss the search results in a consultation, where I will advise you on the best paths forward, tailoring strategies that align with your business goals and risk tolerance.

Common Questions About Trademark Searches

What Is a Trademark Search?

A trademark search is an examination of existing trademarks to determine whether your desired trademark is available for registration. It helps identify any potential conflicts that may arise from similar existing marks.

How Long Does a Trademark Search Take?

The duration can vary based on the complexity of your trademark and the thoroughness of the search. Generally, I provide a preliminary report within a few days and a comprehensive analysis shortly thereafter.

What Happens After the Search?

Based on the search results and review of the findings, I will advise you on the best course of action, whether that means proceeding with registration, modifying your mark, or exploring alternative branding options.
