Trademark Counsel for Global Brands

Rumbaugh provides end-to-end trademark representation, from initial name selection and clearance through federal registration, enforcement, and portfolio management. Our attorneys bring deep prosecution and litigation experience across publicly traded companies and emerging startups alike. Our integrated IP docketing platform monitors filings, manages deadlines across jurisdictions, and provides real-time portfolio visibility so time is spent on strategy, not overhead.

Full-Lifecycle Trademark Representation

We partner with businesses across technology, financial services, pharmaceutical, novel therapeutics, consumer products, and dozens of other industries to build and defend durable brand portfolios. Our work spans three core phases.

Selection & Clearance
A strong trademark begins with a smart selection process. We conduct comprehensive multi-database clearance spanning international registries, domain names, business directories, social media handles, and other common-law sources. We deliver written assessments with practical recommendations designed to help you adopt marks that are registrable, defensible, and built for long-term brand equity.
Prosecution & Portfolio Management
We draft precise descriptions of goods and services, prepare applications aligned with your commercial strategy, and file them with trademark offices around the world. When the USPTO issues an office action, whether for likelihood of confusion, descriptiveness, or procedural issues, our attorneys draw on years of prosecution experience to craft strategic responses. Beyond individual filings, we provide ongoing portfolio audits, renewal management, international coordination, and automated monitoring to keep every registration current.
Enforcement & Litigation
When a third party threatens your brand, we move decisively. Our attorneys are seasoned federal litigators with extensive experience in federal district court litigation across multiple jurisdictions, opposition and cancellation actions at the Trademark Trial & Appeal Board (TTAB), and domain-name challenges under the UDRP. We prepare every matter for trial while maintaining an excellent track record of early, creative resolutions.
