We solve the most
frequently asked questions
We have compiled the most frequently asked questions about Intellectual and industrial property so that you can solve them immediately.
In our firm we always say that the trademark registration process is "the least important thing", in the sense that it consists of filling out a form that is filed online at the registration office and that, although it can be done badly if you do not have sufficient knowledge, it is not too complex.
The value of hiring an industrial property attorney to make a trademark registration is, in our opinion, in the pre-registration and post-registration phases:
In the previous phase, because it does not make sense to launch a product or service with a name without having first studied the viability of that name. Doing searches to check if that trademark (or a similar one) is already registered by a third party is essential to avoid problems in the future. For this we will need a lawyer specialized in industrial property, because doing the searches and interpreting the results is a very complex task.
At the later stage, because most offices in the world do not act ex officio on trademark applications that resemble mine. This means that a trademark application identical or similar to an earlier one will only be refused by the office if the owner of the earlier mark files an opposition. In order to file an opposition, the application must have been previously detected. This is where the trademark surveillance service comes in. Industrial property attorneys have computer programs that allow us to detect trademark applications identical or similar to those we have under surveillance, in Spain and abroad.
