Do you want to file your trademark application yourself without hiring an attorney? The first step is to conduct a trademark search in the USPTO database, the Internet, and other databases and make sure no one else already has a claim to your future trademark. In this video, I show you how to conduct a trademark search using two examples of potential trademarks.

(This is the first video in a series on filing your own trademark application.)

Would you like to work with me on your USPTO trademark application?

I have a few spots available in my calendar for new clients on trademark packages ($850 plus USPTO filing fees) where I will represent you and file your trademark with the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office.

This includes conducting a trademark search, providing strategy advice, submitting the application and accompanying you through the process at the trademark office.

If you are interested, email me at [email protected] and we can discuss if this is a good fit for you and what the next steps are.
