Protect What’s Yours: Your Brand, Your Identity
As an individual entrepreneur, creative professional, or innovator, your trademark is a vital part of your personal brand. Whether it’s a logo, name, slogan, or unique design, your trademark sets you apart and reflects the quality and values you represent. Ensuring your trademark is protected under Nigerian law is the first step toward building and securing your legacy.

Why Trademark Protection is Crucial for Individuals
Trademarks offer individuals exclusive rights to their brand identity. When registered, a trademark prevents unauthorized use, imitation, or exploitation by third parties. This is particularly important in Nigeria’s fast-growing economy, where the potential for brand misuse is high. For individuals, a registered trademark can serve as a valuable asset, offering legal standing to monetize, license, or defend your intellectual property.

Steps to Trademark Registration

Initial Consultation and Assessment: Our firm works with you to identify the elements of your brand that qualify for trademark protection, including names, designs, or symbols.
Comprehensive Search: To avoid future disputes, we conduct a detailed search at the Nigerian Trademarks, Patents, and Designs Registry to confirm that your proposed trademark does not conflict with any existing registrations.
Application Preparation: Our legal team ensures all necessary documents are prepared and submitted, including accurate classification of goods or services.
Publication in the Journal: Once reviewed, the trademark is published in the Trademarks Journal for a statutory period, during which any objections can be raised.
Certificate Issuance: If no objections are received, the mark is successfully registered, and you receive a certificate of registration, which serves as your legal proof of ownership.
