Has your trademark application been opposed? We help businesses prepare a strong trademark opposition reply and defend their application with a clear legal strategy.
A trademark opposition can be stressful, especially if you were expecting your application to move forward without problems. Once a third party files a notice of opposition, your application enters a legal dispute that must be handled carefully and within strict deadlines.

2. We Review the Opposition

3. We Prepare Your Trademark Opposed Reply
We draft the reply, including any counter statement trademark or equivalent filing required in your target jurisdiction.
4. We File and Monitor the Procedure
We submit the response and follow the case until the authority issues its decision.

If you need help assessing the case, contact us for an initial review of your opposition.
How Much Does the Trademark Opposition Reply Service Cost?
There is no single fixed trademark opposition fee. Trademark opposition cost depend on factors such as:
the country involved
the complexity of the conflict
whether evidence is needed
the number of procedural stages
the legal strategy required
For that reason, we assess each matter individually before sending a quote, so we can offer the most suitable and cost-effective option for your specific case.
What Documents are Required to Respond to a Trademark Opposition?
The documents required depend on the country and the grounds of the opposition.
We may ask for:
commercial documentation
proof of use
evidence of earlier rights
details of territorial expansion
information about brand positioning
supporting background on the mark
Once we review the case, we will tell you exactly what is needed for your defense.
Can I Still Register My Trademark if it Has Been Opposed?
Yes, in some cases you can. A trademark opposition does not automatically mean your application will fail. Depending on the case, it may be possible to challenge the opposition, negotiate an agreement with the other party, or limit certain goods and services to reduce the conflict.
The best option depends on the legal arguments, the available evidence, the jurisdiction, and how the case is handled.
Does This Service Include Appeals or Additional Proceedings?
In general, the service covers the opposition defense process until the authority issues a decision on whether the trademark will proceed or be rejected.
However, in some countries there may be additional stages, such as:
appeals
court proceedings
extra evidentiary phases
other exceptional procedural steps
If any additional stage may apply, we explain it in advance and include it separately in the quote when needed.
