We all know it. Backlogs at the USPTO are longer than ever. Every time you have a new client consultation, the question inevitably comes up: How long will the trademark registration process take? And then you've got to cringe, take a deep breath, and explain those loooong wait times to your client. Whew.
It's true, much of the trademark registration process is out of our control as trademark practitioners. It is what it is. But did you know there are actually some things you can do to mitigate delays in the examination process for your clients' applications? Wouldn't it be super helpful to learn what those things are so you implement them immediately?!

Erik is all about energy, when he’s representing clients; speaking at a conference; teaching trademarks at Georgetown University; or leading the trademark clinic at Howard University, where for four years he guided students working with pro bono clients. Through it all, Erik draws on his superpower – the ability to distill complex legal principles and procedures into digestible, understandable, and actionable concepts. Erik’s talent for clarity allows him to not only paint a clear picture of the why, but also the what’s next as he explains options and possible paths forward for clients as they build and grow successful brands.
After cutting his teeth as a trademark examiner for the USPTO, Erik has, in the years since, grown his trademark law practice with the enduring ideals of customer service and affordability. Today, with more than 4,000 client trademark registrations to his name, as a published author, creator of an app for trademark practitioners, and host of the “Tricks of the Trade(mark)” podcast, you won’t find anyone else who will care brands and trademarks as passionately as he does.
Erik lives in Falls Church, Virginia, where he also provides pro bono work for veteran-owned businesses.
