Have you received an opposition?

When applying for a trademark, owners of already existing trademarks can come forward and challenge the new application if they believe it infringes on their rights. However, oppositions are not automatically accepted by the IP office, and if you have received one, there might be ways of saving your trademark. We can assess your case, offer legal guidance and craft a proper response to help you stand your ground.
