We managed to secure our trademark in the US with the help of Gerben IP, which I thought would not be possible given the size and competitiveness of the market. Great communication and updates throughout the process, and amazing service. Thank you very much!

I was nineteen years old and starting my first business without much knowledge on the proper actions to take. I needed to trademark my brand's name due to a potential threat of it being taken. Josh, Eric, and the rest of their team were incredibly honest, trustworthy, and insightful. They patiently helped me through the entire process. A little more than a year later, and my trademark has just been approved and registered with the USPTO. Thank you Gerben IP, it was a pleasure to work with you. - M.L.

I am thoroughly impressed by Josh Gerben and his colleagues. They helped me through the detailed process of filing and my Trademark, which would have been an extremely stressful process for me to do alone. I could depend on them to contact me in a timely manner to keep all of the filings up to date, and CORRECT. I can't say enough positive about them. The whole team was quick to respond to my questions and made me feel secure in my choosing them.
