What are you trying to protect?
Why run a search for similar marks?
Before spending time and money filing an application, you should consider whether your mark is similar to one registered by someone else. A search can help identify potential conflicts before you file.
If your company is just beginning, it is better to make a name change now rather than invest heavily in a brand only to learn that you may need to change the name later.
We help review registered and pending federal records and identify marks that may create filing risk.
A More Affordable Alternative
to Traditional Law Firms
Traditional trademark filing through a law firm can cost thousands and may include time away from your business. mplawlegal offers a streamlined alternative with clear online support and transparent packages.

FAQs for USPTO
trademark registration
Our team of experienced trademark professionals is ready to help.
A trademark is a word, phrase, symbol, design, or combination that identifies and distinguishes the source of goods or services from others.
Federal registration may provide stronger nationwide protection, public notice of your claim, and additional enforcement benefits.
Timing varies depending on the application, USPTO review, and whether any objections or oppositions arise.
™ may be used to claim trademark rights. The ® symbol is generally reserved for marks registered with the USPTO.
Some applicants can file on their own, while others prefer professional legal guidance to reduce avoidable filing mistakes.
A U.S. federal trademark can remain active indefinitely if required maintenance filings are submitted and the mark remains in qualifying use.
