Our trademark services
When starting a new company, or creating a brand, one of the first things to do is choosing a name. It is fun but can also be difficult considering the regulations it must comply with to be accepted as a trademark, not to mention coming up with a name that no one else is already using. Launching a brand and investing in marketing before having the exclusive rights is a risky decision – let Otmore help you secure it!
We can assist you with the naming process, from the first idea to the final choice. Read more about our trademark services in the different sections below.
