Why Your Trademark Gets Rejected
Filing is fast. Filing correctly is not.
Anyone can submit a trademark application in an hour. But wrong classes, bad specimens, incomplete clearance, and sloppy descriptions cause rejections, delays, and wasted filing fees that set you back months.
You don't know what you don't know.
Clearance searches, specimen requirements, filing basis, office actions, Section 8 and 9 filings—the trademark process has dozens of steps and deadlines. Miss one, and your application stalls or your registration dies.
Preparation beats correction every time.
Fixing a rejected application costs more time and money than doing it right the first time. A checklist ensures nothing falls through the cracks—from first decision to registered trademark.
How to Use This Checklist
Work through this checklist in order, phase by phase. Do not skip ahead—each phase builds on the previous one.
Pre-Filing & Clearance
Start with pre-filing decisions to make sure you know exactly what you are protecting and how. Complete the clearance search before you fall in love with any mark.
Prepare & File
Gather everything you need in the preparation phase before you start the application. Then file with confidence knowing you have done it right. Got a question, ask me.
Monitor & Maintain
Track your application and respond to any office actions. Calendar your maintenance deadlines so you never lose your registration to a missed filing.
