Laura MacFarlane
Partner, Practice Group Leader, Trademark Agent
Overview
A brand starts with a single mark and can become one of the most valuable assets of your business. Trusting us with your brand is a responsibility we take seriously. By combining trademark advice with practical business guidance, we support your brand management as an essential part of your IP strategy.
With experience handling trademark registration and disputes before the Canadian Intellectual Property Office, we have a team of lawyers and registered trademark agents who provide a full range of services:
- Canadian trademark screening and selection
- Practical advice on brand protection
- Trademark registration, including oppositions (unlike many firms, we handle your Canada trademarks ourselves)
- Trademark watch services
- Trademark oppositions, infringement prosecution and defence, seizure orders, and injunctions
- Oversight of trademark registration around the world through our closely maintained network
- Advising on strategies for brand protection and competitive intelligence
No matter the size of your business or the industry you are in, contact Austin Ward to discuss your brand management and trademark needs and receive an initial assessment of your IP strategy.
