Hi. How can we help you?

Are there any benefits from a pre-filing use of the trademark?

  • pre-filing use may demonstrate acquired distinctiveness
  • pre-filing use may help overcome an objection to a trademark application on the grounds of non-distinctiveness
  • the first person to use a mark has the ultimate right to such mark, even if another subsequently registers it
