Determine If Your Trademark Is Available

Before you apply for a trademark, it’s critical to make sure no one else is using a name or logo that’s too similar. Proper trademark searches help avoid costly conflicts, delays, or outright rejection of your trademark application with the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

At Larson & Larson, our searches go far beyond what you’ll find using free tools. We uncover trademarks that may not appear in standard databases and analyze risks most people wouldn’t know to look for.

What’s Included in Our Trademark Search Service

Our legal team will guide you through a comprehensive search and legal assessment, including:

• Reviewing your trademark for potential legal risks
• Searching USPTO records for similar registered or pending marks
• Identifying unregistered trademarks with possible common law rights
• Evaluating “likelihood of confusion” — whether your trademark might be confused with existing brands in look, sound, or industry
• Providing a written opinion on your chances of approval
• Recommending whether to proceed, revise, or rebrand

We don’t just generate a list of results — we interpret them in context and give you clear, strategic guidance.

Timeline and Fees

Trademark search services are typically completed within 5–7 business days. After reviewing the results, you can decide whether to move forward with filing or take time to refine your mark based on the findings.

The cost for a trademark search and legal opinion is $1,200. If you choose to proceed, we can prepare and file your application as a next step and will provide a clear quote based on your situation. If additional work is required during the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) review process, we will explain your options and obtain approval before incurring any additional costs.
