FAQs

Do I need a search before filing?

A comprehensive search reduces the risk of refusals or conflicts. We’ll score risk and recommend a filing plan.

How long does it take to register?

Most applications see a first USPTO review in 6–9 months. Timelines vary by basis and any refusals or oppositions.

Flat fees or hourly?

Searches and standard filings are flat-fee. Responses and enforcement actions can be flat-fee or scoped upfront.
