Common Questions
Frequently Asked
What is the difference between a trademark and a patent?
Trademarks protect brand identifiers (names, logos, slogans) that distinguish goods or services. Patents protect inventions — new, useful, and non-obvious processes, machines, or compositions of matter — for a limited period.
How long does trademark registration take?
The USPTO registration process typically takes 8–12 months if there are no substantive objections. We help streamline the process with thorough pre-filing searches and precise applications.
What steps should I take to protect a trade secret?
Implement confidentiality agreements, restrict access on a need-to-know basis, mark documents as confidential, use technical security measures, and conduct regular audits of your information security practices.
