Common Law Search

Not every business name or brand name is required to obtain registration from the jurisdiction to do business; many owners can do business without registering trademarks through domain names, social media websites, etc.

It is important to conduct a thorough internet search to find the common law mark in the report because no registration is necessary to establish common law trademark rights, so one can never be assured that all relevant common law marks appear in any available database.

The reports at Wissen Research conduct various platforms, such as domain names, SOS (Secretary of State), and internet-based searches, to cover all possible common-law trademark results.

Furthermore, the report follows the below-mentioned methodology to cover the entire internet results:
