Trade Mark Selection Support for Creative Businesses and Marketing Teams
The creation and selection of a new brand, logo, strap line or corporate
identity which will win over the public and avoid infringing existing
trade mark rights can be a challenging business. However, there are a
number of practical measures that can be taken to guard against wasting
time and money.
Creative Session Support
Boult Wade Tennant provides on-site creative session support by
arranging for one of its trade mark team to sit in on important brand
creation meetings to conduct on-the-spot trade mark searches and other
checks via a web connection.
Standard Trade Mark Searches
Our Search Department can conduct various levels of search ranging from
quick UK searches to identify identical trade marks which would act as a
definite bar to a chosen name, to Full Clearance Searches incorporating
register searches and a variety of other checks. Searches can be carried
out for the UK or for other countries of specific interest.
The Full Clearance Search is a key final step prior to committing to a
new trade mark.
Brand Investigation and Acquisition
Occasionally, it can be strategically useful to purchase another
company's defunct brand and revive it for use. Alternatively, it may be
necessary to have old, unused trade marks removed from the register in
order to clear the way for a company's plans. We can arrange the
purchase of domain names, trade marks and other rights on a "no-names"
basis by using an intermediary company.
