We want to register our brand as a trade mark - Northampton

Registration converts a brand into an asset you can enforce, licence and sell. Clearance searching first avoids objections and costly rebrands.

• Availability searching and class selection
• Filing and responding to examination reports
• Handling oppositions

How long does registration take?

An unopposed UK application typically registers in around four months.

Do I need registration to have rights?

Unregistered rights exist through passing off, but they are harder and more expensive to enforce.
