DISPLAY OF DATA AND SEARCH
We are dependent upon State records and may exhibit them on this website. While we continually
attempt to make use of the latest information available, we cannot guarantee its accuracy,
reliability, or timeliness.
CALENDAR REMINDERS
As a significant segment of our services, we may offer reminders or notifications about upcoming and
fast approaching deadlines that may apply to your trademark. These notifications are only for
informational purposes and are the general
standards applicable to most trademarks. It is advised that you consult a licensed attorney
regarding applicable deadlines to your particular situation, as individualized situations have
guidelines more specific than general ones.
Please do not presume that the automated notifications are legal frameworks. We do not offer any
form of legal advice or legal interpretation on specific situations.
CREATION OF FORMS AND DISCLAIMER
Please comprehend the distinction: We are a technology platform that aids in the creation of forms
and not a law entity or legal service provider. In the event that you purchase one or more than one
package that is inclusive of cease
and desist, assignment of trademark letters, or other forms, you will be eligible to a form document
that is inclusive of the information provided by you or from your uploaded files. We are not a legal
alternative, making us ineligible
for proving you with legal suggestions. Our customer service representatives are not required to
answer any of your legal queries, nor will they entertain any law related conversations. Any
information transmissions between yourself
and our customer service representatives are not monitored and thus, you should refrain from sharing
any confidential information with them. We provide assistance in the preparation of your trademark
application but cannot file
it for you as your counsel of record. We are not responsible for providing you with any legal advice
related to your particular trademark.
We may voluntarily, but by no contractual binding are required to review the data you provide us with
for completeness, fraudulence, or administrative errors. Under no specified instances are we
responsible for reviewing your provided
answers for legal accuracy, legal counsel, advice, or opinions. We do not review your data for any
legal purposes, nor do we provide legal recommendations about legal rights, remedies, defenses,
options, selection of forms, or
strategies, or apply the law to the facts of your particular case.
In the event that you are under the assumption that you have received any legal assistance or
consultancy from us, you will not make your purchase. You accept and understand that your purchase,
download, or usage of a form document
is not a legal action and is devoid of any legal advice. Additionally, you accept and understand
that each form, and all applicable instructions or guiding texts are not designed to meet your
individual needs.
KINDLY NOTE THAT WE RETAIN YOUR CREDIT CARD DATA IN ORDER TO BE ABLE TO PAY
THE STATE FILING FEE ASSOCIATED WITH YOUR ORDER. WE RETAIN YOUR CREDIT CARD INFORMATION ONLY AFTER
YOU ARE SATISFIED AND ABLE TO APPROVE THE APPLICATION, WITH
THE COST OF THE FILING FEE BROUGHT INTO YOUR COGNIZANCE BEFORE BEING FILED.
We provide you with a draft of the application for your review. If you do not respond with
timeliness, you authorize us to sign your name to the application, file it as provided in the draft,
and to collect from you the governmental
filing fee of $350 per class at that time.
SEARCH SERVICES
If you utilize our search services, we use commercially and professionally reasonable methods to
identify marks that may be tallied with the ones you seek to use. We, however, cannot guarantee that
your mark will make it through and
be approved even if you use our search services. There may be a number of reasons the USPTO rejects
your mark and there are circumstances where an automated search may not be able to identify a mark
the USPTO qualifies as a reason
for rejection.
Similarly, when your order is inclusive of common law mark searches, we use commercially justifiable
methods to identify marks that may be an equal match to the ones you seek to use. We, however, do
not guarantee that your mark will
be absent of or prevailing all claims or challenges made by holders of common law rights to all
marks. There are amongst some of the instances where an automated search may not be able to identify
a regular law mark that may be
similar to your mark
The aim of the search report is to give you with the necessary marks to satisfy the parameters
identified for the specific kind of search you use. It is not designed to be a legal framework or
legal advice as to whether your proposed
mark will be dismissed, or whether it would be considered resembling to another mark. You may want
to seek the counsel of an attorney regarding the outcomes of the search report we furnish you.

as well as all authorized or unauthorized users or beneficiaries of services or products under these
Terms or any prior agreements between us.
In this Agreement, Dispute is described as “any dispute, claim or controversy between you and Safe
Trademark Hub its members, officers, directors, agents, parent companies and vendors that arises out
of or relates to this Agreement
or use of the Site or Service, or otherwise regarding any aspect of your relationship with Safe
Trademark Hub that has accrued or may thereafter accrue, whether based in contract, statute
(including, but not limited to, any consumer
protection statutes, regulation, ordinance, tort (including, but not limited to, fraud,
misrepresentation, fraudulent inducement, negligence or any other intentional tort), or any other
legal or equitable theory.”
The un-predictiveness of any Disputes is governed by the Federal Arbitration Act and not any state
laws applicable to arbitrations. Regarding the substantive and significant law of any Disputes, to
the optimal extent authorized by
law, the laws of the State of California govern the non-arbitration related interpretation of this
Agreement and the substantive law of any Dispute, notwithstanding of clashes of laws and principles.
Arbitration. Any Dispute shall be CONCLUSIVELY and EXCLUSIVELY solved by bonding individual
arbitration conducted by the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) under its Consumer Arbitration
Rules. This arbitration agreement is made
pursuant to a transaction involving interstate commerce, and shall be governed by the Federal
Arbitration Act (9 U.S.C. 1-16).
ARBITRATION OF YOUR CLAIM IS COMPULSORY AND IRREVOCABLE. NEITHER PARTY WILL
HAVE THE RIGHT TO LITIGATE THAT CLAIM THROUGH A COURT. IN ARBITRATION, NEITHER PARTY WILL HAVE THE
RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL OR TO ENGAGE IN DISCOVERY, EXCEPT
AS PROVIDED FOR IN THE AAA CODE OF PROCEDURE.
All regulations as to the scope, interpretation, enforceability, applicableness, and validity of this
Agreement shall be made final solely by the arbitrator, which award shall be contractually binding
and final. Judgment on the arbitration
award may be entered in any court having jurisdiction. This arbitration provision shall survive: i)
the termination of the Agreement; or ii) the bankruptcy of any party. If any portion of this
arbitration provision is declared
void, invalid or unenforceable, the remaining sections shall remain enforceable.
NO CLASS ACTION, OR OTHER REPRESENTATIVE ACTION OR PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL
ACTION OR JOINDER OR CONSOLIDATION OF ANY CLAIM WITH A CLAIM OF ANOTHER PERSON OR CLASS OF CLAIMANTS
SHALL BE ALLOWABLE.
THE RIGHT TO OPT OUT OF BINDING ARBITRATION AND CLASS ACTION WAIVER WITHIN 30
DAYS. IF YOU DO NOT WISH TO BE BOUND BY THE BINDING ARBITRATION AND CLASS ACTION WAIVER IN THIS
SECTION, YOU ARE REQUIRED TO NOTIFY US IN WRITING WITHIN
30 DAYS OF THE DATE THAT YOU ACCEPT THIS AGREEMENT. YOUR WRITTEN NOTIFICATION MUST BE E-MAILED TO
USA Trademark Officials info@usatrademarkofficials.com WITH THE SUBJECT LINE “OPT-OUT’ AND INCLUDE: (1) YOUR
NAME, (2) YOUR ADDRESS, AND
(4) A CLEAR STATEMENT THAT YOU DO NOT WISH TO RESOLVE DISPUTES WITH US THROUGH ARBITRATION.
Any arbitration will be administered by the AAA under its Commercial Arbitration Rules. If the value
of the dispute is $75,000 or less, its Supplementary Procedures for Consumer-Related Disputes shall
also be applicable. On disputes
involving $75,000 or less, we will punctually reimburse your filing fees and pay the AAA's and
arbitrator’s fees and expenses. You agree to start arbitration only in your county of permanent
residence or in California, US. We agree
to commence arbitration only in your county of residence. You may request a telephonic or in-person
hearing by following the AAA rules. In a dispute involving $10,000 or less, any hearing will be
telephonic unless the arbitrator
finds good cause to hold an in-person hearing instead. The arbitrator may award the same damages to
you individually as a court could. The arbitrator may award declaratory or injunctive relief only to
you individually, and only
to the extent required to satisfy your individual claim. Nothing herein restricts USA Trademark Officials from demanding the arbitrator to award USA Trademark Officials all costs of the arbitration including any
Administrative Fees
paid on your behalf.
If the Dispute is not arbitrated by the choice of the parties or a court does not compel arbitration
if either party elects to arbitrate for whatever reason, the Dispute will be decided by a court
without any right by either party
to a trial by jury. Any such court proceeding, including any efforts to compel arbitration or
initially filed lawsuits that arise out of or relate to this Agreement or use of the Sites shall be
resolved exclusively by a court of
proficient jurisdiction located within California.
