Title: How you can become a trademark agent?
1How to become Trademark Agent in India?
2Introduction
A Trademark Agent in India can assist clients in
various matters related to trademark
registration. This includes conducting
the trademark search, filing of the application
and even providing assistance in case
of trademark opposition. Trademark agents provide
important information regarding the essentiality
of trademark registration, validity and use of
the same. Trademark agents are different from
trademark attorneys in the sense that Trademark
Attorneys are legal practitioners specialising
in trademark laws and compliance. Trademark
attorneys help clients not only with trademark
registration, but can also go on to assist them
with the protection of their trademark by
handling infringement cases (if any).
