If you are an entrepreneur contemplating to launch a new product or service, establishing trademark rights should be a top priority.
A company's identity, unique service, and brand are its most important assets. Trade names, symbols, phrases, logos, and other distinctive marks are generally developed at great time and expense. Thus, trademarks are very important and valuable to the great majority of businesses that provide a product or service.
For example, unless a company registers its trademarks, a latecomer may seek to obtain registration of the trademark and block both the expansion and use of the trademark and any later attempt to register it. If a business properly registers its trademark with the Indian Trade Marks Registry, the Registrar will automatically reject the trademark application of the latecomer attempting to register the same or confusingly similar mark, and the trademark rights of the business or entrepreneur will always be superior to the latecomer.
We provide trademark counsel, guidance and services to those entrepreneurs and businesses which are serious about developing and protecting their company names, product names, service marks, logos, and taglines. Our Head Office is based in the heart of South-West port city of Cochin (Kochi). We have representative offices at Thiruvananthapuram (Trivandrum), Kollam (Quilon), Kottayam, Thrissur (Trichur), Kozhikode (Calicut), Kannur and Kasaragode. We assist clients in everything from the selection of the trademark to its registration.
