MarkAssuresm Service 
				Our law firm is a leader in the 
				intellectual property field.  We have a 
				unique service for checking trademark and service mark status for 
				our clients with regard to protection of their trademarks and 
				service marks.   The service is called our MarkAssure<sm> 
				Service.  
				There are four distinct but related 
				services: 
				    1.   
				Search Services.  You provide your intended business 
				name or product line name, and we will search available record 
				to provide you with insight regarding the probabilities that the 
				mark is available for acquisition.   
				    2.   
				Registration Services.  We file for the federal or 
				state registration of the mark.  Often, this can be 
				performed the same day.  If you are launching a new 
				business, business unit or product line, it is imperative to 
				protect your mark before you make the mark publicly known.  
				See 8 
				Common Questions About Trademarks  and
				
				Introduction to Trademark Law and
				
				Trademark Registration Process for more information. 
				    3.   
				Maintenance Services.  Once you receive a 
				registration for a mark, it is crucially important that you 
				maintain the mark in accordance with specific statutory 
				deadlines.  If you miss a deadline, you can lose your 
				registration.  Some of the deadlines can be 10 years into 
				the future, so it is very easy for a layperson to forget the 
				deadline.  Our firm has an extraordinary proprietary 
				computer system that tracks deadlines as well as sends clients 
				automated reminder emails.  See 
				
				Section 8/15 Affidavits for more information. 
				    4.   
				Watching Services.  The MarkAssure watch service can 
				be established for pre-defined intervals.  We will 
				automatically perform search services to assist you with 
				determining if there are any potential infringers or anyone 
				trying to lean on your valuable mark and reputation.  See
				Disclaimers for more 
				information.  In the usual case, the cost is extremely 
efficient at less than $100 per interval.  However, the cost is often a 
function of the mark itself.  The reason is because the type and status of 
marks can cause addition analysis or service.  For example, as part of our 
services, we have reviewed marks so frequently used by others or infringed upon, 
that we have needed to prepare spreadsheets of infringers and create priority 
policing plans.
