WIZ-Unlimited Fees Explained
Our trade mark application process is conducted in two phases
Brand Protection Strategy
Before we can file your trade mark applications, it is vital that we undergo research of your brand and business to devise your comprehensive Brand Protection Strategy. Without completing the required due diligence before filing a trade mark application, you leave yourself vulnerable to objections from the UKIPO and unexpected challenges to your trade mark application (e.g. a letter before action or an official opposition against your application).
In the Brand Protection Strategy, we analyse your brand and provide formal legal advice relating to your prospective trade mark application. This will include a list of classes relevant to your brand (with a snapshot of goods/services), a breakdown of your branding elements, registrability advice, high risk searching advice, and costs related to drafting the specification, alongside preparing and filing the application.
We provide the Brand Protection Strategy at a cost of £150+VAT for one trade mark application and £25+VAT for each additional application.
Specification Filing
Once you have received and digested your Brand Protection Strategy, we are ready to begin drafting your specifications. Our experts will prepare a comprehensive and detailed list of goods and services that you should include in your applications to have the best protection possible. We always aim to provide you with the broadest and strongest protection so that no other businesses can copy your name, take advantage of your reputation, or tarnish your brand.
Once you have approved your specifications, we can then prepare and file your trade mark applications at the UKIPO.
Our professional fees for drafting and preparing an unlimited number of UK basic applications in unlimited classes start at £1,000+VAT. There is a £50+VAT administration fee for filing each application and dealing with the basic formalities and non-contentious deadline management. You will also need to pay the government’s filing fees which are £170 for the first class and £50 for each additional class.
What’s Included
Trade Mark protection can be a complex process where you can encounter technical legal difficulties. We have tried to explain the filing process in simple terms, but we understand that you may have more questions about what is involved. If so, please book a free 15 minute consultation with one of our Trade Mark Attorneys.
