Design Application

The design application and monitoring processes are crucial for protecting your innovative designs and creative works. At Leo Patent, we guide you through the design registration process and ensure your designs are legally protected. Here are the services we offer in design application and monitoring processes:

1. Design Research and Preliminary Examination

Before starting the application process, we conduct comprehensive design research to determine the registrability of your design and potential conflicts with existing designs. During this process:

• We analyze similar designs and existing designs in the same field.
• We evaluate potential risks and likelihood of objections.
• We provide you with a detailed report on the registrability of your design.

2. Design Application Process

We provide professional support at every stage of the design application process. During this process:

• We ensure the accurate and complete filling of the design application form.
• We collect and prepare the necessary documents for the application.
• We submit your application to the Turkish Patent and Trademark Office (TPMK).
• We keep you informed throughout the acceptance and publication process of the application.

3. Design Publication and Opposition Processes

After your application is accepted by the TPMK, your design will be published in the bulletin. During the publication process:

• We monitor the publication of your design in the bulletin.
• We take proactive measures for potential objections to the publication.
• In case of objections, we develop an effective defense strategy and present the necessary documents and arguments to reject the objections.

4. Design Registration Certificate and Post-Registration

After successfully completing the design application process, we assist you in obtaining your registration certificate and in the subsequent processes:

• We ensure the correct issuance of your design registration certificate.
• We provide services for monitoring the protection period of your design and performing renewal procedures.
• We offer consultancy on protecting your design rights and defending against infringements by third parties.

5. Design Monitoring Services

After the design application process is completed, we offer continuous monitoring services to protect your design:

• We conduct market and competition analyses to track your design.
• We monitor new applications in similar or the same field and take precautions against potential infringements.
• We provide strategic consultancy services to maintain and enhance the value of your design.
