Trademark Filing

The protection of your trade / brand name or the name of your products and services as a trademark ensures you a monopoly on their exploitation: once the trademark is registered, you can prohibit anyone from exploiting it.


This is therefore an essential key to preserving your distinctiveness in your market.


However, registering a trademark is not a simple act: it is necessary to take into account the many existing registrations (and other signs such as trade names or denominations for example) and ensure a lawful and useful trademark registration.


Registering a trademark requires extensive knowledge and experience in trademark law.
