Before proceeding with the trademark registration process, RAMPI LEGAL provides Prospects and Clients a service of paramount importance for the registration of the marks: the anteriority search. This professional comprehensive trademark search reduces some of the unknown and inevitable risks that may arise during the trademark registration process and allows applicants to know ahead of time what other marks exist that my affect their chances of getting a registered trademark. Moreover, the trademark search may avoid unnecessary expenses, such as trademark opposition proceedings and other non-refundable filing and legal fees.

The service we provide encompasses a rigorous evaluation process that considers not just identical marks, but also variations among marks and related goods and/or services and highlights any visual, phonetic and conceptual similarities.

Leveraging our experience and expertise in IP, we will also know how to evaluate search results to ensure trademark availability and rights to properly use and register a mark. As a matter of fact, we will therefore provide our Clients and Prospects with a list of all trademarks identified as potentially in conflict with their marks, including a legal opinion relating to the search findings, drafted and signed by the experienced trademark attorney who has carried out the search.
