Our 4 Trademark Packages:
PREMIUM - URGENT - START UP - APPLICATION
PREMIUM PACKAGE
Are you seeking affordable trademark services that fulfill all your business needs? Look no further. TradeMark Express provides comprehensive trademark services at the best prices.
OUR BEST DEAL
At TradeMark Express, we’ll carefully search for your trademark in both pending and registered Federal and State trademark databases, as well as in the US National Common-Law files. At every search level, you’re given access to our trademark attorney network to discuss the search results. If the mark is clear to file, we’ll facilitate the preparation and filing of your US Federal trademark application (USPTO fees separate).
And the best part? You get all of this for just $800. By choosing this package, you’ll save $2000 or more compared to hiring trademark attorneys.
Starting a new business comes with many costs, and we understand that. We also know how important it is to have a thorough trademark search and analysis before filing.
To make things easier for our clients, we offer two payment options:
1. $800 Premium Package — Our Best Offer
2. 50% PAY PLAN — Pay $425 when you order. Then, in 4 weeks, pay the remaining $425, totaling $850.
Here's How Our Premium Package Works:
Step 1: Free Preliminary Direct Hit Trademark Search
Before we dive into a comprehensive trademark search, we start with a free direct hit check at the US Trademark Office (aka the USPTO). This quick check helps us see if there’s any immediate conflicts with the name you want. If there’s an issue, we’ll refer you to our trademark attorney network for further discussion.
Step 2: $300 USA Federal & State Trademark Search
Once the preliminary check is clear, we move on to a comprehensive search of both Federal and State trademark records. We follow the USPTO’s strict guidelines, looking for any similarities in sound, appearance, or meaning. This involves searching for synonyms, different spellings, word placements, and more to ensure your trademark search is comprehensive.
Trademark Search Analysis Included
After the trademark search is completed, we analyze the results for free. If there are conflicts or strong similarities, the search process is paused and you are referred to the trademark attorney network for further discussion.
Not Using the Name
If, after consulting with the attorney, you decide not to use the name, any remaining balance can be rolled over for your next choice name (funds must be used within 2 years from the order date; packages cannot be refunded).
Moving Forward with the Name
If there are no issues or if you choose to proceed after consulting the attorney, we move to the next search: the US Common Law.
Understanding Likelihood of Confusion: If your trademark is too similar to another one, especially if they’re for related goods or services, consumers might think they come from the same source. This is called “likelihood of confusion,” the main reason for registration refusal. Trademarks don’t have to be identical to be too similar; they can just sound alike, look alike, or mean similar things. Whether they’re likely to be confused also depends on whether the goods or services linked to each trademark are related.
Savings on Attorney Fees: With our step-by-step research, you’ll save on trademark attorney fees as we filter down the results to trademarks that could pose potential issues. This means you only need to discuss relevant marks with the attorney.
Included Analysis: Our trademark search analysis is included, saving you $400 compared to attorney charges.
Step 3: $300 US Common Law Trademark Search
We conduct a comprehensive search for your name’s commercial availability across thousands of files – public records, internet & domain, company directories, major newspapers & magazines, trade journals, and more. Businesses hold “first use” or Common Law rights to their trade names within their trade areas. The Common Law search helps you understand if there are any trade restrictions that could affect your trademark. Imagine not being able to sell in a city, county, or state crucial to your brand.
Common Law Search Analysis Included
After the Common Law Trademark search is completed, we analyze the results for free. If there are any conflicts or strong similarities, the search process is paused and you are referred to the trademark attorney network for further discussion.
Not Using the Name
If, after consulting with the attorney, you decide not to use the name, any remaining balance can be rolled over for another name (funds must be used within 2 years from the order date; packages cannot be refunded).
Moving Forward with the Name
If there are no issues, or if you choose to proceed after consulting the attorney, we’ll move on to the next step: the Trademark Application.
Sources We Use: We use Thomson Reuters Westlaw, which is an “industry leader for legal research platforms and tools.” Our comprehensive Common Law search looks at –
- Public Records: Incorporation filings, LLC registrations, DBA filings, company directories, and business registrations.
- Company and Product Databases: Over 300 million business profiles from sources like Business Finder, Company Investigator, Business Profile, and more.
- Dun & Bradstreet: Information on more than 21 million US companies and 305 million global companies.
- News Sources: Thousands of newspapers, newsletters, trade journals, magazines, blogs, and industry specific journals.
- Internet & Domain: Extensive search of the internet, looking for relevant social media profiles, and domain name search.
Included Analysis: Our common law search analysis is included, saving you $400 compared to attorney charges.
Step 4: $200 USPTO Federal Trademark Application (after $200 Discount)
Once your searches are clear or you decide to move forward after consulting the attorney, it’s time for the trademark application.
When you got your order confirmation email, you also got an application worksheet. Fill it out completely. We’ll use this to prepare your trademark application and guide you through the USPTO Manual for pre-approved descriptions of goods or services. After you send us the completed worksheet, we’ll prepare your US Federal trademark application and help you submit it. This usually takes 2-3 days.
Just a reminder:
The filing fees for State or Federal USPTO trademarks are separate. When you file the prepared application we deliver to you via email, you’ll need to pay the filing fee. For Federal applications, it’s $350 per class. State fees vary by State.
Other trademark search companies bundle the Trademark and Common Law searches without providing any analysis. This means that if your trade name is blocked early in the Trademark search, you’ll still be charged for the entire Common Law search.
Our method may take more time and expertise, but it’s beneficial for our clients. The savings can go towards finding a new legally clear name. We estimate we’ve saved our clients over two million dollars in fees by avoiding unnecessary Common Law research.

APPLICATION ONLY PACKAGE
Crafted for Research-Ready Clients
$400
Need just a trademark application?Our trademark application package is ideal if you’ve already completed a comprehensive legal trademark search elsewhere. We offer a free analysis of your prior research report to ensure its accuracy and thoroughness.
Comprehensive reports are typically extensive, ranging from 600-800 pages, and our free review includes access to our trademark attorney network.
We strongly advise against applying for a trademark without first conducting a comprehensive trademark search. It’s essential to ensure your name, slogan, or logo is legally clear before use and before filing.
Trademark law is broader than you might realize, covering sound, appearance, meaning, related goods/services, distribution channels, and customer bases. A simple web search or preliminary check is insufficient; a direct-hit trademark search is just the beginning.
Skipping a comprehensive search can have long-term consequences:
– The USPTO may take up to 8 months to refuse your application if a prior trademark exists.
– If your trademark infringes on another company’s common law rights, they can oppose your application or petition to cancel your registration if it’s less than 5 years old.
A comprehensive trademark search is essential before filing a trademark application to avoid these issues.
Just a reminder:
The filing fees for State or Federal USPTO trademarks are separate. When you file the prepared application we deliver to you via email, you’ll need to pay the filing fee. For Federal applications, it’s $350 per class. State fees vary by State.How It Works
Send us your prior trademark search report for a complimentary analysis. We’ll ensure your intended trademark—whether it’s a name, slogan, or logo—is free of conflicts or strong similarities before filing.
We use this to draft your trademark application and assist you in choosing pre-approved descriptions of goods or services. Once you’ve submitted the completed worksheet, we’ll prepare your US Federal trademark application and guide you through the submission process. Typically, this process takes 2-3 days.
Intent to Use
Once your trademark is actively in business:
File either an Amendment to Allege Use (before your mark is approved for publication) OR a Statement of Use (within six months of receiving the Notice of Allowance). Fees for these forms are $100 per class, plus at least one specimen per class.If you won’t be using your trademark in time:
Extension Requests: File within six months of receiving the NOA, with a fee and a statement of your intention to use your mark. You can file up to four additional requests, each for a six-month period, showing ongoing efforts to use your mark. You must file a Statement of Use (SOU) within three years (36 months) from the date the NOA is issued. Each six-month extension costs $125 per class.Failure to file promptly will result in trademark abandonment.
TradeMark Express offers assistance for these forms at $150 each.
