A trademark designates something special. Because trademarks are unique. And a trademark is a promise: it stands for the quality, value and experience which distinguish your company. Your uniqueness is crucial to the success of your organisation, products and work. Your trademarked brand allows your clients to recognise you instantly and to know straight away what to expect. Which is why a trademark lays the foundation for long-lasting success. Creating a brand and a trademark must therefore be one of the main goals of companies aiming to be successful for years to come
The more time and money to invest in your brands, the more valuable they become. So, protect your brands’ value today, for the future. A trademark is an investment in your company’s future. You can find more stories about success and failures involving trademarked and non-trademarked brands on our BLOG or in our audiobook “Rockt Ihre Marke Ihr Business?“

- The name and address of the trademark’s owner (company/individual(s)/association)
The following services are included in our fixed price:

We assess whether your brand meets the legal requirements for a trademark and advise you on the most suitable trademark category.Trademark research (only included in the PRO + PRO PLUS packages)
We examine trademark registers to see if your trademark has any potentially problematic similarities with existing trademarks. Why is trademark research important? Trademark research allows you to recognise conflicts with other trademarks and to avoid legal disputes which cost a lot of time and money. Trademark research is key in guaranteeing your trademark’s long-term success.Expert evaluation & consultation on the research results (only included in the PRO + PRO PLUS packages)
We discuss the results of the trademark research with you and advise you on risks and possible solutions regarding potential trademark conflicts.
Trademark scope & registration process
We put together a professional definition of the trademark scope (trademark category) for the registration of your brand or logo, so that you can legally defend your property rights in the future. We subsequently register your trademark with the relevant trademarking authority and handle administration until your trademark is definitively registered.Fees
All administrative fees are included in our fixed prices for the 10-year duration of the trademark.TRADEMARKING AT A FIXED RATE

Trademark research:
Trademark research means we assess whether there are any possible conflicts between your trademark and other existing trademarks. If this were the case, it could lead to a legal dispute and your trademark’s cancellation. The purpose of trademark research is to avoid exactly this.
Legal correspondence during the registration process:
It is possible that the registration authority has reason to reject your trademark’s registration during the registration process. In this case, an appropriate statement must be drafted for the applicant. We take over the whole correspondence and statement process, until your trademark can be registered. We spend up to 4 hours on the whole correspondence and statement process, which is usually sufficient for you to be able to register your trademark.
Objection proceedings insurance:
If another trademark owner files an objection against your trademark after its registration and its cancellation is proposed, the insurance covers your costs for the proceedings’ conduct up to CHF 20,000.

Im Verlaufe des Registrierungsverfahrens kann es sein, dass das Markenschutzamt die Eintragung Ihrer Marke unter Nennung von Gründen zurückweist. In diesem Fall muss für den Antragsteller eine entsprechende Stellungnahme verfasst werden. Wir übernehmen den gesamten Aufwand für die Schriftwechsel und die Stellungen, bis Ihre Marke eingetragen werden kann.

Wenn wir Ihre Marke als schutzfähig beurteilen, garantieren wir Ihnen, dass Ihre Marke im Markenregister eingetragen wird. Sollte dies dennoch nicht möglich sein, erstatten wir Ihnen Ihr Geld zurück.
Versicherungsschutz im Falle eines Widerspruchverfahrens:
Innerhalb von 3 Monaten nach der Eintragungsbestätigung Ihrer Marke besteht die Möglichkeit, dass ein Inhaber einer anderen Marke Widerspruch erhebt und die Löschung Ihrer Markeneintragung verlangt.

Diese Summe deckt auf jeden Fall alle Kosten in Zusammenhang mit dem IGE-Verfahren.
