Tailored support to maximise your brand potential

Trademark and design rights provide protection against third parties who use similar or identical marks or designs. However, it is much harder to enforce these rights without a valid registration.

The trademark registration process can be complex and time-consuming depending on the jurisdiction and the nature of the trademark or design you are seeking to protect. Working with an experienced trademark and design attorney can significantly increase your chances of obtaining and maintaining a valid registration.

Expert guidance throughout the trademark registration process

With over 135 years of experience, an outstanding track record of successful registrations and a global agent network, Novagraaf will help you sail through your registration process no matter the territory for which protection is sought.

Your brand, trade name, logo and/or slogan must fulfil specific conditions for trademark registration. For global businesses, this means dealing with multiple and possibly differing application requirements. Our trademark and design attorneys are equipped to guide you through the process and help you maximise your brand’s potential.
