Overview
If an objection or opposition isn’t resolved on paper, the registry schedules a hearing where arguments are presented before the Registrar. Strong representation can make the difference between acceptance and refusal.
CorpRaasta prepares your case, compiles evidence and represents you at the hearing to argue for acceptance of your mark.
