UK TrademarksBefore seeking to register a trade mark, we would normally suggest a search of the United Kingdom Trade Mark Registry is conducted which would identify any conflicting prior rights which may preclude your adoption of the trade mark. As part of the analysis you would be provided with recommendations that are appropriate. Once a trade mark application has been filed, if any objections are encountered either from the Trade Marks Registry or from any third parties then we will address these on your behalf. A trade mark, once registered, provides exclusivity to its use in relation to the goods or services for which it is registered. Should you become aware of the use of a conflicting trade mark then we will provide practical advice and appropriate levels of support. A trade mark now remains valid for a period of 10 years and is capable of being renewed for further periods of 10 years for an indefinite period. It is the only form of Intellectual Property Rights that potentially can be maintained indefinitely. We like to retain a close association with your trade mark portfolio. We deal with trade mark renewals in house and insure that we provide you with advice regarding renewal and other aspects which may be appropriate having regard to your trade mark portfolio.
