Trademark Searches
Trademark searches are a great tool for estimating the likelihood of success in registering a trademark.
To interpret the result professionally, it requires trademark specialists. Weighing concepts and principles of trademark law is vital to achieve a comprehensive analysis.
Without a search, you could waste time and money attempting to register a trademark that already belongs to someone else.
Trademarks
Through trademark registration, companies and entrepreneurs protect the products and services they offer in the market. At the same time, trademark allows consumers to identify the manufacturer or provider of those goods, as well as distinguish them from all other available options.
Trademarks are the most protected intangible asset in Uruguay’s industrial property sector, with an average of over 500 new trademark applications and more than 300 renewal applications each month. We invite you to check our blog and read the monthly trademark report that includes updated charts.
