Frequently Asked Questions

How long does trademark registration take?

The process usually takes 12–18 months, including filing, formal examination, publication, and substantive examination; expedited examination can be requested if needed.

What should be prepared when filing a copyright application?

Prepare a copy of the work, assignment agreement (if any), declaration, and author/owner information to avoid supplementary requests.

What should I do if I find someone else using my trademark?

The lawyer gathers evidence of use, sends a warning letter, negotiates, or files an infringement action with the Intellectual Property Inspectorate or Market Management Authority.

Can I register a trademark in multiple countries at once?

Yes, you can use the Madrid System to file one international application, selecting the countries where protection is desired, at lower cost than individual filings.

Which IP assets should a startup prioritize?
