Description

Edital is recognized for its high quality Searching & Watching service with a blend of an experienced human element using the latest technology. With our qualified partners in the IP field we cover worldwide trademark watching.

Searching in the country concerned is highly recommended before filing a trademark. This improves the chances of finalizing a registration or to prevent a possible opposition with more costs involved.
Watching your trademarks provides you with permanent safety from dilution and loss of value. It is not uncommon that some third party apply, deliberately or not, for the registration of a trademark identical or similar to yours.

Searching and Watching Criteria

We conduct our searches on published and unpublished trademarks. We use the following criteria for each searched or watched trade mark:

The Handout Report

• On our Search Reports every trade mark is identified by an alphanumeric five-character code. This code allows you to access the full details of every trade mark that is of interest to you for free simply by clicking on the link. In general, and at your request, it comprises a full copy of the latest publication of the trade mark.
• Watch Notices can be designed according to your needs (header & footer, your client’s address on the report, etc.).
• Searches and watches can be performed using standard or enriched criteria as defined by yourself or your client.
• According to your preference we can work on a narrow or broad scope.
• Our analysts have a high level of linguistic skills.
• Searches can be performed within one working day in selected registers.
• Reports can be generated in more than one language.
• The description of the goods and services translated into English is available.
• The information is provided by the official organisations and checked by our experts to ensure the quality of the database.
• Reports can be sent by e-mail, fax or regular mail. Reports may also be downloaded from the Internet.
• Our Web Site allows you access to organize, file and consult your Search & Watch Account from many perspectives making it possible to review the status of your entire portfolio or check on individual marks. Reports can be stored for extended periods of time and are in full colour.
