For many years now we have tracked
trademark searching resources at the United States
Patent and Trademarks Office (“USPTO”), both first
hand and through associated firms.
The Internet has helped those
of us in the legal profession to conduct quick searches,
and when appropriate, allows our clients to conduct
preliminary searches.
However, as is well known, the resources on the
Internet are not as complete as the resources that are
available at the USPTO and it is therefore normally
appropriate for an initial search and is not a complete
database. To
be sure, the database that is available in the USPTO is
the same as that available to the public at the USPTO,
but is not the same as the database that is the
available to the public on the Internet.
Furthermore, the search engine and methodology
available to the examining attorneys and the public at
the USPTO are far superior to those available what is
available on the Internet
We welcome any questions that you
may have concerning your client’s trademark matters.
