Trademark Registration


Armistead Law works hard to craft a trademark registration that will protect the long-term future of a company's brand identity. We believe that providing cost-effective and exceptional client service during the registration process is the first step to establishing an effective collaboration to safeguard a client’s trademarks.

Basic Trademark Search & Registration Package: $550 Flat Fee + $325 PTO Filing Fee

"If you're looking to use an attorney to register your mark, you take the long-term future of your venture or business seriously. That's why our registration services are more than form filling or regurgitating information you give us. Each component of the registration application is carefully considered to provide strong and broad protection for your brand identity."
