Douglas L.
Trademark Lawyer
25 years experience and expertise as a Trademark Examining Attorney at the United States Trademark Office. I have reviewed and made decisions on over 50,000 trademark applications. I know what it takes to get a trademark application approved. If your trademark application is rejected, I know the arguments that work and don't work. I graduated from UCLA in 1985, magna cum laude, Phi Beta Kappa, and from UCLA Law School in 1988 in the top 10% of my class. I worked for a prominent law firm in New York City for four years before working in the USPTO for over 25 years as a trademark attorney and supervisory trademark attorney. I have been a licensed New York attorney for over 35 years. I can help you file any type of form with the USPTO. If you have already filed a trademark application and need help with resolving an issue. Provide the serial number of the application and I can give you a quote. When I take your case, I am going to do the best job that I can and take the time necessary to make sure that it is done right. I recently retired from the USPTO in September 2024 but am interested in working on a small number of cases during my retirement. Because I am not working on a large volume of cases like most attorneys, you will have my full attention. I will be the person working on the cases, not a paralegal or secretary. I will always respond promptly to your messages. I can provide the expertise that allows you to successfully file or maintain your trademark registration and can answer any questions that you may have about the process. Hiring an attorney to guide you through the process will allow you to focus on running your business and not having to worry about all the rules and regulations involved in obtaining a trademark registration. Now there are those who say that they want an experienced trademark attorney with trademark expertise but want to pay a very low price. I can tell you that there are no good experienced trademark attorneys who will accept those types of prices and it is illogic to believe otherwise. Experience and expertise at a reasonable price. That is what I can offer you. Let me help you get your trademark application so you can focus on your business.
