Businesses rely on trademarks to differentiate and identify their products or services.
Ratner and Prestia actively assists our clients in the critical task of performing a trademark clearance search during the selection process. The process of registration typically takes more than a year. An application for nationwide rights is made in the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office. This is often the most desired registration. Registration of marks in other countries is also important for companies whose products or services are or may be sold internationally.
