We search the USPTO TESS database and common-law sources to flag obvious conflicts before you spend money on a filing that won't succeed.
We help you identify the correct USPTO class (of 45) and draft a precise description of the products or services your mark covers.
We collect and prepare the evidence required to prove your mark is in actual commercial use — packaging, signage, websites, invoices.
We document when you first used the mark in commerce, a critical detail for the application and any future enforcement action.
Once intake is complete, we hand the file to a licensed U.S. trademark attorney who files the application and manages all communication with the USPTO.
We translate every step of the process into Spanish — consults, questionnaires, attorney correspondence, and USPTO office actions.
Just formed your business? A trademark locks down your brand name nationally so no one else can use it in your industry.
Your business name, logo, or product line deserves federal protection — before a competitor copies it.
E-commerce, Amazon, and DTC sellers need registered trademarks to enroll in Brand Registry and defend against counterfeits.
Consultants, agencies, and service providers building a brand reputation need to own the name they market under.
We meet to understand your business, the mark you want to protect, and the goods or services it covers.
We run a TESS clearance search, complete the intake questionnaire, and gather your specimens and use-dates.
Our partner U.S. trademark attorney reviews the file, drafts the application, and files it with the USPTO.
We stay involved while the attorney handles any USPTO office actions — typically 8–14 months from filing to registration.
“Bradley helped me launch my jewelry LLC from scratch — formation, EIN, MassTaxConnect, all of it. When I had a vendor dispute, he walked me through it step by step. It's like having a family advisor who actually understands how we Dominicans work.”
“I bought an existing business and needed to form a new LLC at the same time. Bradley handled both in parallel — the asset transfer with the previous owner and the formation of Nicole Beauty Studio. Clean, bilingual, no surprises.”
“I'm a Netherlands resident living in Massachusetts. I needed an ITIN and nobody wanted my case because of the complexity. Bradley is a Certifying Acceptance Agent and handled everything — the W-7, the certified passport, the supporting documentation. Approved on the first try.”
Polanco Advisory Group charges a flat $350 intake fee (or $500 for design marks and multi-class applications). The attorney's fee and the $350 USPTO filing fee are separate and billed directly by them. Total typical cost: $1,050–$1,550.
Federal law requires foreign applicants to use an attorney. For U.S. businesses it's not required, but 70%+ of pro-se applications get rejected for technical issues that cost more to fix than to avoid. Using an attorney is by far the cheapest path to a registration that actually holds up.
Typical timeline is 8–14 months from filing to registration, assuming no office actions. Filing gives you immediate priority and constructive national notice from day one.
Proof that you're actually using the mark in commerce — photos of product packaging, a screenshot of your website showing the mark, signage on your storefront, or an invoice with your mark on it.
No one can. The USPTO rejects marks that are too descriptive, too similar to existing marks, or generic. That's exactly why we do a clearance search before filing — to catch problems early and adjust strategy before you spend the filing fee.
We focus on U.S. (USPTO) registrations. For international protection via the Madrid Protocol or country-by-country filing, we coordinate with specialized international trademark counsel.
$350 non-refundable intake covers our strategy call, USPTO TESS clearance search, specimens, and handoff to our partner trademark attorney.
