Answers before you file
The questions business owners ask us most often are about Twin Cities Trademarks cost, timing, and protection.
For one class of goods or services, the cost is a $700 legal fee plus the $350 governmental filing fee. Each additional class over one is $500 total ($350 governmental fee plus a $150 legal fee).
Traditional firms bundle services you may not want into all-in-one packages that run $1,500–$4,500 or bill hourly at $400–$900 per hour. We publish a transparent, flat, per-class fee schedule and let you choose only the additional services you actually want.
A use-based application is filed when the trademark is already used in the marketplace and requires a specimen proving that use. An intent-to-use application reserves your rights before use begins, establishing a priority date, with the proof of use filed later.
A clearance search is optional but valuable. It identifies identical or confusingly similar marks early, narrows a long list of candidate names, and helps you avoid spending on marketing and packaging for a brand you may have to change.
The USPTO requires proof of continued use in commerce between the 5th and 6th year after registration, and again every 9–10 years thereafter. Missing these filings can cancel the registration.
