Trademark Monitoring & Enforcement
A trademark registration is only as strong as your willingness to enforce it. We watch your mark and take action when someone crosses the line.
Do You Actually Need This?
Registration is the beginning, not the end. These are the four signals that active enforcement is needed.
You have a registered trademark and are not watching it.
Trademark rights can be lost through non-enforcement. If you allow others to use confusingly similar marks without challenge, a court may find your mark has become generic or that you have acquiesced to the infringement.
A new company just filed a mark that sounds like yours.
You have a narrow window to file a TTAB opposition before that application registers. Once it registers, cancellation is harder and more expensive. Early action is almost always the right move.
A competitor is selling counterfeit or lookalike goods.
Platform takedowns, CBP recordation, and cease and desist letters are your first line of defence. Without active enforcement, infringers interpret your silence as permission.
Your brand is growing and the risk of infringement is rising.
The more valuable your mark becomes, the more attractive it is to infringers. Proactive monitoring — not reactive fire-fighting — is the most cost-effective enforcement strategy.

Your Questions Answered
Yes. U.S. and Canadian trademark law require rights holders to actively police their marks. Consistent failure to enforce can result in a finding of acquiescence or that the mark has become generic — both of which can eliminate your rights.
A TTAB opposition is a proceeding before the Trademark Trial and Appeal Board that challenges a pending trademark application before it registers. You have 30 days from the date of publication to file — acting within that window is almost always more effective than filing a cancellation later.
Most major platforms (Amazon, Instagram, YouTube, Etsy) have brand protection programs that accept trademark-based takedown requests. A registered trademark is required for most of these programs. We prepare and file the notices on your behalf.
CBP recordation registers your trademark with U.S. Customs and Border Protection, authorizing them to seize and destroy counterfeit imports. If your goods are sold internationally or counterfeiting is a risk, recordation is worth the small fee.
You can, but an attorney-drafted letter on firm letterhead carries significantly more weight — and avoids the risk of making legal concessions or claims that could hurt you in later proceedings if the matter escalates.
