What if you could protect, scale, and defend your brand with a single investment?
SPOILER ALERT:
You can with the power of a trademark.
You can with the power of a trademark.
Our fearless legal team helps business owners in all 50 states gain exclusive rights to their brand, stop copycats in their tracks, and scale their business with confidence.
Now, it’s your turn.
LET'S DO THIS
You might want to rethink that whole “my business doesn’t need a trademark” thing…
A trademark gives you exclusive rights to use your brand name in connection with the product or service you sell in all 50 states, and allows you to enforce those rights through things like lawsuits that lead to monetary compensation. Anyone planning to launch or grow a business of any size needs to protect their assets through one or multiple trademarks.
The cost of not owning your brand is break-your-heart high.
Because without a trademark,
you’re playing defense.
You risk facing and reacting to consequences like:
01/ Competitors and Copycats Coming After You
Stealing your name, producing knockoffs, and capitalizing off of your hard work, and ultimately dampening your reputation
02/ Receiving Cease and Desist letters
Can you say heart attack? You’ll have to consult with an attorney to determine if you have any recourse.
03/ Federal
Lawsuits
And you thought a few thousand for a trademark was a lot?! A federal lawsuit can cost hundreds of thousands, not to mention your mental sanity.
04/ Disgorgement of Profits
AKA being ordered to pay back every cent you made while using another company’s trademark—even if it’s already spent!
05/ Shutting Down and Rebranding
Say goodbye to the brand you’ve built your reputation on and hello to starting back at square one.
On the other hand
When you own your brand,
it’s offense all the way.
You can proactively chase your dreams full-force while repeating benefits like:
Higher
Revenue
TM owners are proven to have higher revenue overall thanks to its reputation-building power
A Sellable
Business Asset
Just like you can own and sell physical property, you can own and sell the intellectual property of a TM
Legal
Recourse
Your TM unlocks tools for protection: lawsuits for monetary reward and damages, cease and desist letters, etc.
Official brand ownership
Starting a business doesn’t mean you own it (weird, I know). Unless of course, you have a trademark.
Telling copycats
to back TF UP
Copycats and competitors lurking in the shadows, waiting to steal your incredible work, can get the hell out of here once and for all.
But why should I hire you to do it for me?
Damn, I need this.
When you work with me for your trademark, you will:
File first
The USPTO is ‘first come first serve,’ so filing your application secures your spot in line and no one can cut ahead. Waiting even 24 hours can make or break your chances of getting your desired TM!
Only File Once
Attorney-filed applications are 50% more likely to be approved than those filed without an attorney. Filing right the first time can save you YEARS (yep, you right that right)!
50% of all applications require an attorney to respond to office actions from the USPTO. Save on filing and attorney fees when you book everything together from the get-go.

RESEARCH, CLEARANCE, AND PREPARATION TO FILE
We go above and beyond to ensure your mark is clear for takeoff! By using special software to discover stealth (AKA otherwise “hidden”) marks, we'll uncover any trademarks that could cause your application to be denied or come back with a low probability of getting approved. Once we take a deep dive into the uncovered results, we'll write you a top-secret letter giving our expert opinion and analysis of risk before we ever press “go.” This way, we can ensure you avoid all unnecessary exposure, expenses, and lost time filing a mark you can’t own.

STEPFANIE
SEO STRATEGIST
“If you want to protect your brand, ideas, etc., you 10,000% need Lethal Legal! The process for trademark filing was so smooth and seamless. I love that I could be hands-off and know my trademarks were in good hands. Chandler took the time to explain the process of trademark filing to make sure we had all of the right classes included, and the team stayed in touch throughout.”
ALEXANDER
DOG TRAINER
"We are in the midst of rebranding and really moving into a place of wanting to serve our community, impact them and improve their lives more authentically and we want weight behind it. Chandler helped give us that weight; not many companies in our industry are federally trademarked and we feel strongly that we can be trusted and our clients do too! It’s why we invested in trademarking - it shows that we are vested in our business emotionally AND INvested financially."
SYDNEY
ARTIST
"As a small business owner, I was looking to invest in legal for the first time and was so lucky to find Chandler who would help me level up and understand my needs as a creative wanting to scale, value, and protect her brand. In our year of working together, Chandler educated me along the way on what needed to happen and helped me to anticipate what to expect. I would gladly recommend her, and I'm so thankful her firm made the trademark process smooth and exciting! Grateful to have connected with someone so competent and understanding of what I needed for my small business. Chandler delivers, and this investment was a big step for me in where I want to take my business."
KATE
DESIGNER
"Chandler is an amazing lawyer and very knowledgeable about what she does. My favorite thing about working with her is that when she answers your questions she doesn't just tell you the answer but tells you why, so that you are informed in decisions and things that happen. I was hesitant that it would be too expensive and wondered if it was worth it. And I was wrong! Best investment I have made for myself and my business."
AMY
PHOTOGRAPHER
"Lethal Legal makes the daunting trademark process extremely uncomplicated, organized, and efficient, especially for a small business owner. Chandler is so much more approachable than big law firms, and was very upfront with pricing, the process, and how a trademark is beneficial for my specific brand."

If for some unforeseen reason it doesn't, we’ll offer to give your money back or file another one on us! If the chances of getting it approved are low, you can still opt to give it a shot and see what happens, or we’re happy to run a second complimentary search to find a new name with better odds. Win-win, much?

Still Got A Q or Two?
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
OF COURSE YOU DO. THIS SHIT IS IMPORTANT.
What is a trademark?
Why do I need a trademark?
Do I need more than one trademark?
What can I trademark?
Is a trademark tax deductible?
What if I'm based in a different state?
What if I would rather DIY the trademark process?
How long does the trademark process take?
What if my brand name is already taken?
What if I haven't launched my business/brand yet?
Is there a difference between trademarking my logo and the name of my brand?
What happens to my trademark if I expand my business?
There are many reasons why you need a trademark, but the most important is the legal protection and ownership it provides you as a business owner. Without a trademark, the names of your brand, services, products, etc. are subject to being used by other businesses, which can cause confusion among consumers and inhibit the growth of your business.
Why do I need a trademark?
Potentially! If you think about the number of unique names, words, and design elements you use to promote your business and sell your offerings, you could probably come up with a pretty long list of products, services, etc. In order to fully protect and own your brand, most businesses require multiple trademarks in multiple categories to ensure their intellectual property isn’t lost to copycats or infringement suits. You don’t have to file everything at once, but the sooner you file, the better.
Do I need more than one trademark?
If budget constraints are a concern, we created the Asset Protection Program (APP) as a way to guide you through the process of trademark registration yourself. Keep in mind that the USPTO has rigid and finicky standards for filing your mark, so if you have any concerns about getting your mark filed correctly and quickly, we strongly encourage you to work directly with our legal team as a client.
What if I would rather DIY the trademark process?
Great! Filing your trademark BEFORE you launch is the best time to ensure your brand is protected. By filing prior to launch, you can go to market with the confidence and peace of mind that your intellectual property is fully protected from the get-go.
What if I haven't launched my business/brand yet?
Yes! The difference lies in the type of trademark you will file: a “word mark” vs. a “design mark”. A word mark refers to the name of your brand, whereas a design mark refers to your logo. It’s important to have both, but as a general rule, we suggest starting with your word mark (aka your brand name) since design elements such as logos typically evolve over time.
Is there a difference between trademarking my logo and the name of my brand?
Once you own a trademark, you will forever own that mark so long as you take the necessary steps to maintain ownership. However, as your brand expands, so does your portfolio of intellectual property, so you’ll likely need to file more trademarks so that your brand continues to be fully protected as you scale.
