Trademark Solicitors
A trademark in the UK is a distinctive sign—such as a name, logo, slogan, or even a sound—that sets goods or services apart from competitors. Registering a trademark with the UK Intellectual Property Office (UKIPO) provides legal protection, allowing you to stop others from using a similar mark in a way that confuses consumers or damages your brand’s reputation.

What does registering a trademark involve?
- Clearance searches: Checking existing trademarks and unregistered marks to avoid conflicts or objections.
- Filing application: Submitting details of the mark, the relevant classes of goods/services, and any supporting evidence.
- Examination process: The UKIPO reviews your application, potentially issuing an examination report if there are similarities with existing marks or other concerns.
- Opposition period: Once published, third parties can object if they believe your mark conflicts with theirs.
- Registration and renewal: If successful, your trademark is protected for 10 years, with the option to renew indefinitely.
How can a solicitor help with trademarks, and what does it cost?
An intellectual property solicitor can:
- Conduct searches and advise on registrability: Ensuring your proposed mark is unique and unlikely to infringe existing rights.
- Prepare and file applications: Handling the paperwork and responding to any examination queries or objections.
- Enforce or defend trademark rights: Sending cease-and-desist letters, negotiating settlements, or representing you in legal disputes over infringement.
Costs vary based on complexity and the solicitor’s experience. Some firms charge £150–£400 per hour, while fixed-fee packages are often available for straightforward trademark searches and filings. An initial consultation—sometimes free—can clarify fees, timelines, and strategies to secure and protect your brand effectively.
