Premium package · Performance

Nothing more is due until your mark is approved.

A $500 deposit starts the work. You get two responses, filing assistance and support all the way to the registration certificate. The remaining $2,000 is due only if the USPTO approves your mark for publication.

Is Premium right for you?

For applicants who want the whole path covered, not just the response.

Premium carries the file from the response to the registration certificate, with two responses included and nothing due when the draft is delivered.

Premium fits if you…

  • received a Section 2(d) likelihood-of-confusion refusal
  • want support through registration, including the opposition period
  • want nothing due on delivery and the balance due only on approval
  • are a U.S.-domiciled applicant filing for yourself or your business

Choose another package if you…

  • only need support to publication: Standard Plus, $1,750 if approved
  • want a second chance if a final refusal can't be overcome: Premium Plus, $3,000 if registered
  • aren't sure the refusal can be beaten yet: start with the $25 TRACE™ Report, credited toward Premium

What you get

Everything from the first draft to the registration certificate.

Not a template with your mark typed in. Each response is drafted against your refusal, your cited registrations and the arguments the Board actually accepts, and then we stay with the file.

01

Your TRACE™ Report

The diagnostic behind the draft: your Confusion Index, the factors in your favor, and the gaps the response must close. Already have one? Your $25 is credited.

02

A custom response draft

A complete response that takes the examiner's reasoning apart factor by factor, with precedent, evidence exhibits and unlimited revisions until you approve it.

03

Filing assistance

We guide you through submitting the response from your own USPTO.gov account. You review and sign it; we never log in with your credentials.

04

A second response, included

If the examiner maintains the refusal, we draft your second response or a request for reconsideration at no extra fee.

05

Support to registration

We track the application past publication to the registration certificate, watch the opposition period, and tell you at once if an opposition is filed.

06

Nothing due on delivery

After the $500 deposit, the $2,000 balance is due only if the USPTO approves your mark for publication.

Refusals the Board reversed

Strong records win, even against close marks.

Each applicant was refused by an examining attorney, appealed, and won. Each won on a different argument, and each is an argument your Premium response can make.

Refusal reversedCrowded, weak term
Applicant's markSYCAMORE GROWTH GROUPTax consulting on tax credits
Cited registrationSYCAMORE CAPITALFinancial and investment management

Why the Board reversed

The marks were similar and the services related, but many SYCAMORE marks already coexist for tax and financial services. That weakness alone decided the case.

What it means for your response

Third-party registrations and real-world use can show a shared word is too common to block you.

From non-precedential decisions of the Trademark Trial and Appeal Board, 2025–2026. Every case turns on its own record.

Questions

Before you start.

Anything else? Email info@trademarkscrivener.com.

When exactly is the success fee due?

Only if your mark is approved for publication, following withdrawal of the Section 2(d) refusal our response addressed. If the refusal is maintained and made final, no success fee is owed.

Who files the response?

You do, from your own USPTO.gov account, with our step-by-step guidance. You review and sign every filing; we never log in with your credentials. That keeps you in full control as the applicant of record.

My deadline is close. Is there time?

Usually. Your draft arrives 5 to 7 business days after the deposit, once we have your materials. Tell us your deadline when you start, and we will flag it right away if it is too tight.

Are you a law firm?

No. Trademark Scrivener is an independent trademark administrator and diagnostic service. We do not give legal advice or act as your attorney, and we do not represent you before the TTAB.

Can you guarantee the refusal will be withdrawn?

No one can. The examining attorney decides. That is why most of the fee is tied to the USPTO's decision.

Is the deposit refundable?

No. The $500 deposit is non-refundable once paid, because work starts immediately. The full refund and cancellation terms are in our Terms of Service.

Who can use Premium?

Applicants domiciled in the United States. USPTO rules require foreign-domiciled applicants to use a U.S.-licensed attorney, so we cannot prepare their responses.
