What’s the difference between a free trademark search and comprehensive trademark search?‬

While a free trademark search and comprehensive trademark search both allow you to check for existing trademarks to assess potential conflicts before registering a new mark, the scope of search and the depth of analysis are different.

Frequently asked questions

Can I perform a trademark search for free?

Yes, you can perform a trademark search for free. Our free trademark search tool will complete a basic search that finds exact matches that are live or pending with the USPTO.

Why run a trademark search for similar trademarks?

Running a comprehensive search for similar names, logos, or slogans is crucial to protect your brand and save time and money. It will avoid costly legal disputes if your mark is too close to an existing trademark, prevent USPTO trademark application rejection and protect your brand’s uniqueness.

Why do you need to search more than just exact matches with the USPTO?

While our free trademark search finds exact matches with the USPTO, it does not flag unregistered (“common law”) trademarks or state-level conflicts that could lead to legal disputes or USPTO rejection. Our comprehensive search reviews federal, state, and common law databases. Plus, we provide ranked search results to help identify potential conflicts.

How can I verify the ability to trademark a name?

You can verify your desired trademark name by performing a trademark search with us. A basic free trademark search will give you insights into direct name matches at the federal level. However, a comprehensive search scans multiple databases including federal and state trademark registries, as well as considering common law usage, to identify potential conflicts and ensure your name is legally available for use without infringement claims.

How are trademark searches and the trademark application process related?

A trademark search is usually the first step in the process of applying for a trademark. It's done to ensure there are no other similar trademarks registered, which could cause issues with your application being approved. If your search doesn't surface any issues, you can proceed with submitting your application to the USPTO.

Why register a trademark?

A registered trademark grants you exclusive nationwide rights to your brand name, logo, or slogan. It also deters competitors from using confusingly similar marks and builds credibility with customers. Protecting your unique name, logo, or slogan in the form of a trademark is one of the most important investments in your business. LegalZoom’s attorney-led trademark registration includes conflict checks, USPTO application preparation and filing, turning your brand into a protected, revenue-generating asset.
