Trademark Refusals: Common Causes Explained
Difficult Legal Terminology
USPTO refusal notices are written in complex legal language that can be overwhelming without professional guidance.
Tight Filing Deadlines
Most refusals require a response within three months, and TTAB matters, such as oppositions or cancellations, may allow as little as 40 days.
Uncertain Legal Direction
Should you revise your application, submit an appeal, or start over? Many applicants struggle to determine the correct strategy.
Multiple Refusal Types
Each refusal, whether based on likelihood of confusion, descriptiveness, or specimen issues, demands a tailored legal response.
Concern Over Lost Investment
After investing time, money, and branding efforts, starting from scratch can feel discouraging.
Brand Exposure Risks
Without registration, your brand remains vulnerable to imitation and competitive misuse.

Prevent Unauthorized Registrations with TTAB Opposition
Safeguard Your Trademark Rights Effectively
When a confusingly similar trademark is published, immediate action is critical. We file TTAB oppositions to prevent infringing marks from reaching registration, preserving your brand’s integrity and competitive position.
Opposition deadlines are strict, and missing them can severely limit enforcement options.
Eliminate Conflicting Marks via TTAB Cancellation
Neutralize Fraudulent or Improper Registrations
Invalid or improperly registered trademarks can block your business growth. We pursue TTAB cancellations to eliminate conflicting registrations and restore your freedom to expand.
The longer a conflicting mark remains registered, the more challenging it becomes to remove.
Resolve USPTO Refusals through TTAB Appeals
Transform “Refused” Applications into Registrations
A refusal does not have to be final. We handle TTAB appeals to challenge unjust decisions and fight for trademark registration using strong legal arguments and supporting evidence.
Appeal deadlines are firm — missing them forfeits your right to challenge.
