Case Studies

The below case studies illustrates how Trademark Registration would help you to protect your brand.

Personal name Trademark– Professional services

Our client is a well known personal trainer and fitness instructor in the UK and he was seeking to protect his name as a trade mark for his new books as well as he was releasing his new fitness program on DVD, and wanted to develop some new fitness equipment in the future.

We helped him to register his trade mark for those products and he earned tens of thousands of pounds in royalties during the last year alone.

He saw the value in trade marking of his name as others already reaped the benefit from their registration such as the Beckhams or the celebrity chef Anthony Worrall Thompson just to name a couple.

Can you picture those benefits of a trade mark registration?

Opposition negotiation - Software and Gaming

We acted for a UK Ltd company to protect their name as a trade mark in the software and gaming industry in several countries. They have used their name for a number of years already and their reputation has echoed far within the industry.

During the registration process a well known global giant in the music industry claimed that they have a registered trade mark for a similar name.

Our client’s brand has never confused the consumer of this record company and it sounded that they just want to bully our client with their gigantic power. We negotiated a settlement for our client before it went to opposition proceeding and our client’s company name had been successfully registered in three continents as a trade mark.

Hijack the trademark – Watching service

Our client, a car manufacturer, had registered their trade mark some time ago and they had a subscription for our watching service in several countries. We have spotted a trade mark application of a Far-eastern company for the same name, a model of their car, in Europe and we felt that we have to alert our client in order to protect their brand.

Our client instructed us to prepare and file an opposition against the perpetrator of that application, and as a consequence the Far-eastern company withdrew their application immediately. Also, it would be money and time consuming to bring proceedings against these companies once their mark is registered.

Since of their trade mark registration and subscription to our watching service, our client experienced that they have saved money and time and they can concentrate fully on their business as we handle all the Intellectual Property matters for them.

Counterfeit products on eBay - Fashion Industry

We have registered a trade mark for our client a fashion company. When the brand took off a couple years later they have become aware of some sellers on ‘eBay’ selling imitation (fake) products with their brand on it.

They wanted to stop these sellers to infringe on their trade mark, but they were not successful when they contacted ‘eBay’. They got in touch with us and we acted for them in the infringement matter, and achieved the co-operation with ‘eBay’ to solve our client’s problem.

‘eBay’ had stopped these traders to sell the infringing product on their website and handed over their details to us and we started legal proceeding against them. As a result, our client had been able to recover damages from the traders and those products were confiscated and destroyed.

Trademark registered in bad faith by another company - Cosmetic Industry

Our client a small cosmetic company had developed and manufactured a skincare product in the UK. Following a few years of successful sale of the product they wanted to trade mark the brand.

We carried out a comprehensive trade mark search and found out that there is another company had registered a very similar name, in fact only one letter was different, for similar products. We found out that this company wasn’t carrying on any commercial activities but they were registering trade marks in a bogus manner.

We have applied for the registration of our client’s mark and this company tried to stop our client to register the trade mark to threaten with opposition proceeding unless our client will pay a huge sum of money to them for the trade mark or pay license fees.

We advised our client not to pay anything to this company as this company will not have a chance to win a legal proceeding. The other company didn’t pursue the legal way as we predicted, and our client saved money and time on their registration.

Do you wonder that what happened with the other companies earlier trade mark?

Our client applied to invalidate the mark from the Register and succeeded in the proceeding.
