Before Filing a Trademark

The applicant should identify the exact owner of the mark, the version of the name or logo to protect, the goods or services for which it is or will be used, and any evidence of existing use. A search can reduce avoidable risk but cannot guarantee acceptance or eliminate all opposition.

Trademark, Company Name and Domain Name

A company name, domain name and trademark serve different purposes. Registering one does not automatically secure the others. A coordinated brand strategy may include SECP name reservation, domain registration, social handles and trademark filing.
