A Trademark Opposition is a legal challenge filed by any third party against a trademark application that has been published in the Trademark Journal. It gives businesses an opportunity to stop similar or confusing marks from getting registered.
If your brand faces opposition, you must defend it through a strong Counter-Statement and evidence. On the other hand, if you believe someone’s trademark is deceptively similar to yours, you can file an opposition to protect your rights.
