Trademark Strategy

Brand name protected
before someone else files.

A brand name you've been using for years is not automatically protected. We handle the screening and preparation work, and connect you with a qualified trademark agent for the formal filing. Start before your rebrand, not after.

What's included

Everything you need, none of the upsell.

Real deliverables, with the boundaries written down. So you know what you're paying for and what counts as extra.

CIPO Screening

Conflicts found before you file.

Canadian Intellectual Property Office database searched for your name and similar marks in your class. USPTO checked for cross-border exposure.

Class Selection

Right goods and services classes.

Trademark class selection is where most self-filed applications go wrong. We identify the correct Nice Classification classes for your business.

Application Prep

Filing-ready package.

Name, description of use, goods and services list, and specimen prepared. Handed to a trademark agent for formal filing.

Agent Referral

Qualified agent for the filing.

We work alongside a qualified trademark agent for the formal CIPO filing process. You get professional legal coverage where it matters.
