Trademark Registration for Your Brand
Protect your brand name and logo with a registered trademark. Leegal handles the search, filing and follow-up end-to-end.
What Is Trademark Registration?
A trademark is a distinctive sign — a name, logo, slogan or combination — that identifies your goods or services and distinguishes them from others. Registering it gives you exclusive legal rights to use it for your registered class of goods/services.
Registration involves a search for conflicting marks, filing the application with the Trade Marks Registry, and responding to any examination objections or third-party oppositions that arise.
| Registered Trademark | Unregistered Use |
|---|---|
| Exclusive legal right to use the mark nationally | Rights limited to common law use in your existing area |
| Can take legal action for infringement more easily | Harder and costlier to enforce against copycats |
| Can license or sell the mark as a business asset | Limited ability to commercially exploit the mark |
| Signals credibility to customers and investors | No formal registration to point to |

Frequently Asked Questions
How long does trademark registration take?
Timelines vary depending on objections or oppositions raised, and current Registry processing speed. Our team keeps you updated at each stage.
What happens if someone objects to my trademark application?
We help prepare and file a response to the examination report, and represent you at any hearing if required.
How long is a registered trademark valid?
A trademark is typically valid for ten years from registration and can be renewed indefinitely in further ten-year terms.
Can I register a logo and a business name together?
They're generally registered as separate marks, though both can be filed. Our team can advise on the best approach for your brand.
Do I need to be using the mark already to register it?
No, you can file on a "proposed to be used" basis, though marks already in use may have some procedural advantages.
