Respond after a use filing

Resolve the questions raised about your use filing.

A Statement of Use can receive an Office Action when the examiner finds an issue with the filing. We review the letter alongside the original use information and specimen to understand what the response needs to address.

HOW WE HELP

Statement of Use Office Action support

01

Review the notice and filed evidence

Share the complete letter, Statement of Use, and specimen. Concerns can involve how the mark appears, whether the material shows the relevant goods or services, or other requirements in the use filing.

02

Assess the available correction

A replacement specimen or clarification must satisfy the applicable requirements and timing. Actual use dates and the evidence matter; creating a new image does not establish qualifying use for an earlier period.

03

Prepare a complete response

Agree the information, preparation, professional involvement, and fees with the team. A response needs to address the letter’s issues while observing the notice deadline and any limits relevant to the use filing.

Questions about this service

Can I fix the specimen with a mockup?

A specimen must show actual qualifying use, with any required statements and timing. A mockup is not a substitute for that evidence.

Should I submit a new Statement of Use?

Do not assume another use filing is the correct response. The actual Office Action and application history determine the proper process.

Is this the same service as the initial use filing?

The initial Statement of Use and a later Office Action response are separate stages. The quote identifies the work needed for the notice.
