Forbes Names JPG Legal a Top Trademark Filing Service
We are excited to announce that JPG Legal has been recognized by Forbes Advisor as one of the top trademark filing services. Though we weren’t the highest rated service overall, we proudly stood out as the highest rated law firm on the list, demonstrating our commitment to providing top-tier legal services to our clients. The three services rated higher than our firm are all large “legal services” companies, not law firms staffed with lawyers. The […]
If you’ve tried to submit any trademark filings in the US after August 6, you might have been surprised to see that the USPTO now requires you to get your identification verified by something called ID.me.
