Trademark Protection
Trademark Protection services managed seamlessly by our expert team.
Registering your trademark is just the beginning: protecting it means monitoring the market and acting quickly when someone copies you. CASYST helps you watch for infringement, send notices and defend your brand.
What is Trademark Protection?
Trademark protection covers the steps taken after registration to defend a brand. This includes watching the Trade Marks Journal and the market for similar marks, sending cease-and-desist notices, filing oppositions and taking legal action for infringement or passing off.
A registered mark gives the strongest rights, but unregistered marks can also be protected through passing off if they have built a reputation.
