Three Steps We've Used to Register 5,500 Trademarks

Step 1: Comprehensive Trademark Search

Once you complete our engagement form, we will conduct a comprehensive federal, state and common law trademark search. Our search of federal and state trademark databases is done utilizing software provided by Corsearch. This is an industry leading trademark search software used by the largest law firms in the world. Our search works to identify any potential issue with your desired trademark prior to making a trademark filing.

Step 2: Trademark Attorney Consultation

Within 7-10 days of commencing work, we will return the trademark search results for your review. You can then set up a time to talk to one of our attorneys about the search results and any other questions you have about the trademark registration process. In the event that our search uncovers a problem, we offer a complimentary second search on a different trademark.

Step 3: Trademark Application Filed

Our experienced trademark attorneys will prepare your trademark application for your review and approval. Having drafted and successfully registered over 5,500 trademarks since 2008, our attorneys understand the intricacies of a US trademark application and will ensure your application is drafted to give you the best chance of approval possible.

Breakdown of Our Trademark Service

U.S. Based Intellectual Property Lawyers

Our IP Attorneys work with businesses & individuals to secure protection for trademarks, copyrights and patents.

Intellectual property covers anything that originates in someone’s mind, such as literary works, artistic pieces, inventions, and names, symbols, images, and designs used in commerce. Protection for this property includes copyright, industrial designs, patents and trademarks.

Intellectual Property Protection: Trademark, Copyright, or Patent?

The type of protection you need depends on what it is you are trying to protect. A copyright protects artistic or literary work, while a patent protects an invention. If you would like to protect words, phrases, symbols, or designs that represent a company or goods offered by a party, you’ll need a trademark or service mark.

Intellectual property lawyers can help you decide what kind of protection you need, help you put your protection into place, defend it, and maintain it as needed. That being said, Gerben Law Firm was built to specialize in one area of intellectual property law: trademark law.

Getting Started With an Intellectual Property / IP Lawyer and Trademark Law

While you should start the process of registering your trademark as soon as possible, the best time to get started is before you begin actively using and building equity in your potential trademark. Intellectual property lawyer Josh Gerben and Gerben Law Firm can help you search federal, state, and common law trademarks to ensure your trademark are not already registered.

Gerben Law Firm’s intellectual property (IP) attorneys will help you draft your trademark application and file it with the US Government. We will stay with you every step of the way, helping with any office actions, opposition proceedings, or appeals, until the trademark registration process is complete.

Maintaining and Protecting Your Intellectual Property Rights

Once you’ve registered your trademark, you are legally obligated to maintain those rights. Gerben Law Firm offers a number of intellectual property services to help you do just that.

To learn more about intellectual property rights and trademarks, or to get help registering or maintaining your trademark rights, contact an intellectual property lawyer at Gerben Law Firm now.

Every now and again you come across someone who you know will always get the job done, be upfront and honest, and looks out for you. It's great never having to worry about Trademarks. I know I can just give him a call and it'll be done quickly, affordable, and done right. He gives us one less thing to worry about. This is the only service I've ever reviewed because I honestly believe he's one of the best. I can count on one hand the services I really trust and will always go back to, and Josh is one of them.

Megan Cummins, Sparklepop

As an entertainment attorney, I get frequently asked to register a name for trademark protection. I am smart enough to know that this is a highly specialized area of the law that requires patience, understanding, extensive research, a finely tuned verification process and the ability to navigate the steps and procedures established by the federal government. But I am even smarter to know that, in the age of the specialist, I needed the best. I have used Josh over a dozen times to satisfy my client's needs for such protection. He is thorough, quick, extremely fairly priced and, most important, professional on the highest order. His work product is without compare and I never hesitate to 'let go' and allow Josh to do his job. I don't even bother getting too deep into my client's situation....I immediately get in touch with Josh and know that my client will be well served. I offer the highest possible unconditional recommendation for Josh and his firm.

Wayne Halper, Law Office of Wayne Halper

Josh is a Trademark/Service Mark expert and very efficient and effective in his work. When working with him on our Trademark/Service Mark application process, Josh's communication was excellent and his expertise and personal demeanor quickly built trust in the business matters. He manages a detailed and well balanced analysis and is results and success driven.

Johan Reinhoudt, EffectiveSalesCoaching.NL

Working with Josh was an absolute pleasure. He made the process of getting our trademark a breeze. Should we ever seek another trademark we would certainly retain Josh again in a heartbeat. I recommend him very highly.

Verena Frydberg, Makeover Your MS

We were referred to Josh by a business colleague, and were skeptical that any online US Trademark filing process could be both simple and successful. Our experience with other firms (on other trademarks) had been tedious and expensive, by comparison. But Josh's system worked, and we were awarded both trademarks. Of course, which trademark applications are approved and which are denied is up to the USPTO, but Josh's system made the process seamless. Great work at a great price. I love this process and recommend it highly.

Michael Zimmerman, MarketPoint

I hired Josh to do some trademarking work for me. He was very knowledgeable, explained the process clearly, made sure it was filed in a timely manner, and followed up with me each step of the way.
