Law Office of Michael P. Eddy
Protect the name, slogan, or logo you use. File it with U.S. counsel.
We prepare United States trademark applications at a flat fee, quoted before any work begins. You pay the USPTO filing fees separately, straight to the Office. Michael P. Eddy is a patent attorney registered with the United States Patent and Trademark Office, and a member of the State Bar of California. The work is clearance, filing, and the disputes that follow.
You pay the Office
USPTO filing fees are separate and paid to the United States Patent and Trademark Office. They are charged per class of goods or services, and surcharges can apply depending on how the goods or services are identified.
Trademarks and patents
Search, file, and stay on the matter when the examining attorney writes back. Related copyright and trade-secret questions are part of the same conversation.
How we help
All servicesTrademark and patent searches
A look at the federal register, pending applications, and common-law use before you spend money on labels, a domain, or a filing. A search is not a guarantee. It is how you learn what is already sitting in your lane.
Application preparation
Attorney-prepared U.S. trademark applications at a flat fee, quoted before work begins, plus USPTO fees paid to the Office. Identification of goods and services, the drawing, the filing basis, and the specimens when you are already using the mark. Patent application work is quoted from the file in front of us.
Office actions and prosecution
Likelihood of confusion, descriptiveness, specimen problems, and identifications that need a rewrite. Deadlines are short. The response is the case.
