Serving North Texas Business Owners & Entrepreneurs Nationwide
The Risk You Can't Afford to Ignore
Your Brand Has No Protection Until You Register It
An LLC Is Not a Trademark
Registering a business name with the state creates a legal entity — it does not give you trademark rights. Anyone in another state, or in the same state in a different industry, can use your brand name without consequence until you have federal registration.
A Domain Name Is Not a Trademark
Owning yourname.com does not protect your brand. A competitor can register a similar name, use it in commerce, and then challenge your ability to operate under your own mark — especially if they file a USPTO application before you do.
Cease-and-Desist Without a Trademark = No Leverage
If someone is using your name and you have no federal registration, your options are limited and expensive. A registered trademark gives you a legal presumption of ownership nationwide and the ability to enforce your rights through the USPTO and federal courts.
Rebranding Costs Far More Than Registration
A forced rebrand — new logo, new domain, new marketing materials, new signage, new client communications — can cost tens of thousands of dollars and years of brand equity. Trademark registration now is a fraction of what rebranding costs later.
Trademark Services
Everything Your Brand Registration Requires — Handled for You
Reib Law's Deluxe Trademark Protection Package covers every step of the USPTO registration process at a flat fee. No hidden costs, no incomplete filings, no gaps in your brand protection.
Trademark Clearance Search
Before filing anything, we conduct a thorough exact-match and near-match search of pending and registered USPTO trademarks. This step prevents conflicts, protects your filing fee, and ensures your brand is genuinely available to register and use.
Application Preparation
We prepare your trademark application with precision — identifying the correct mark, goods and services classification, and filing basis. Errors in preparation are the leading cause of USPTO rejections. We get it right before submission.
Application Review & Quality Check
Every application is rigorously reviewed for accuracy and compliance before submission. We verify your description of goods and services, confirm specimen requirements are met, and ensure your filing is complete — reducing the likelihood of procedural rejections.
Electronic Filing with the USPTO
Your application is filed electronically through the USPTO's TEAS system, which provides faster processing, a lower filing fee, and an official filing date — establishing your priority date the day we submit. We handle the entire submission.
Office Action Response
If the USPTO examiner issues an office action — a request for clarification, an objection, or a likelihood-of-confusion refusal — Reib Law prepares a strategic, timely response. Unanswered office actions result in application abandonment. We don't let that happen.
Progress Reports & Status Updates
USPTO trademark examination takes time. Reib Law keeps you informed at every milestone — examination assignment, publication for opposition, and registration. You always know where your application stands without having to chase us for updates.

Who We Serve
Trademark Protection for Every Stage of Business
Because trademark registration is federal, Reib Law serves business owners nationwide — from North Texas entrepreneurs to brand builders across the country. All consultations are available by phone or video.
Small Business Owners in Denton, Dallas & Fort Worth
Reib Law is headquartered in Denton and serves the full North Texas business community — from solo consultants in Frisco to multi-location operators in Dallas. If you've built a brand in this market and haven't registered it yet, you're one competitor filing away from losing it. We make the process straightforward and affordable.
Online Businesses & Digital Brand Builders
E-commerce brands face heightened trademark risk — copycat sellers, Amazon brand registry requirements, and international exposure all create urgency for federal protection. Reib Law works with online entrepreneurs to register marks quickly, correctly, and with a scope that covers your channels and product categories.
Coaches, Consultants & Service Providers
If your name, your method, or your program is the product — that brand needs protection. Coaches, consultants, speakers, and professional service firms build equity in their names and frameworks over years. Trademark registration ensures no one else can take credit for what you've built or create confusion in your market.
Business Owners Across the United States
Trademark registration is a federal matter, which means geography is not a barrier. Reib Law regularly assists entrepreneurs across the country who want an attorney-handled, flat-fee trademark registration — not a form-processing service. If you want your brand protected the right way, we can help regardless of where you're located.

Trademark Registration — What You Need to Know
What a Federal Trademark Actually Does for Your Business
Most small business owners know they should register a trademark — and most keep putting it off. That gap between knowing and doing is where brand equity gets lost. A competitor files first. A cease-and-desist arrives. A platform requires proof of registration. By then, your options are expensive and your leverage is limited.
A federally registered trademark does several things that no other legal document can:
- Creates nationwide exclusive rights — from the filing date forward, no one in your industry can use a confusingly similar mark across the United States
- Establishes a public record of ownership — anyone conducting a trademark search will find your registration and know your mark is claimed
- Enables enforcement through the USPTO and federal courts — registered mark owners can pursue infringers with significantly stronger legal standing than unregistered common-law claimants
- Allows use of the ® symbol — communicating registered status to customers, competitors, and platforms
- Qualifies you for Amazon Brand Registry and similar protections — increasingly required to protect your products and listings on major e-commerce platforms
- Becomes a business asset — a registered trademark can be licensed, sold, or used as collateral, adding tangible value to your company
The single most important thing to understand about trademark registration is that rights are based on priority — and priority is established by the filing date. Whoever files first generally wins. That means every day you operate without a pending application is a day someone else could file first and create a conflict you'll have to pay to resolve.
At Reib Law, we've built a trademark process specifically for small business owners who want this handled right — not by a form-processing service, but by an attorney who understands your brand, your business, and what you're building. Flat-fee pricing, clear timelines, and an attorney you can actually reach.
