Find a trademark attorney

The USPTO always recommends using a U.S.-licensed attorney to guide you through the registration process.

To find an attorney who can represent you before the USPTO in trademark matters, you can consult U.S. telephone listings or the internet, or contact the attorney referral service of a U.S. state or local bar association. You can search the member directory of the State Bar of Arizona here.
