Inclusions & Deliverables FAQ

Explore 5 targeted, source-grounded answers explaining the specific operational mechanics and boundaries of our package inclusions.

On the Self-Filing track (Basic, Basic Plus), Trademark Scrivener's engagement ends once we deliver your highly-customized, watermarked response draft with comprehensive self-filing instructions. You are solely responsible for uploading the arguments to the USPTO portal, paying the government fees, submitting the response, and tracking your application's status. On the Assisted tracks (Standard, Standard Plus, Premium, Premium Plus), we provide clerical filing assistance by helping you upload the response directly to the USPTO portal, and we actively track and monitor your application's progress inside the administrative system.

Our single-response packages (Basic, Standard) cover the preparation of a single response to the initial USPTO Office Action. If the USPTO issues a subsequent refusal after the initial submission, our "Plus" versions (Basic Plus, Standard Plus) and Premium tracks (Premium, Premium Plus) cover up to two complete response drafts at no extra service fee. For the Standard Package, if a second response is required, you can choose to purchase a second response draft for a flat $500, in which case the original $1,000 success-contingent fee is completely waived.

Active tracking "To Publication" (Standard, Standard Plus) means we cleryically file your response and monitor your application through the USPTO administrative database until the Examining Attorney officially withdraws the likelihood of confusion refusal and approves your mark to proceed to publication in the Official Gazette. Tracking "To Registration" (Premium, Premium Plus) extends our administrative support past the publication window. We monitor your mark through the post-publication opposition period and provide active tracking all the way until the USPTO officially issues and delivers your physical trademark registration certificate.

If you choose the Premium Plus package and the USPTO ultimately issues a final refusal that cannot be overcome, our Strategic Refiling Guarantee is activated. Trademark Scrivener will engineer a completely new filing strategy and draft a brand-new trademark application at a **$0 service fee** (you only cover separate, standard USPTO government filing fees). We will then draft all necessary responses and cleryically track your new application all the way to a successful final registration.

No. All package pricing listed in the matrix covers only Trademark Scrivener's professional diagnostic analysis, customized response drafting, administrative monitoring, and clerical portal upload assistance. The United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) government filing fees are separate, mandatory flat fees that must be paid directly and securely to the USPTO at the point of submission using your applicant credentials.
