Counter-statement must be filed within 2 months from the date of receiving opposition notice. This deadline is strictly enforced – missing it results in your application being deemed abandoned and automatically refused.
If you fail to file counter-statement within 2 months, the opposition is decided ex-parte against you. Your application will be refused without a hearing. The deadline is absolute and non-extendable.
Common defences include: prior use rights (earlier than opponent), different goods/services (no conflict), no confusion likelihood, distinctiveness acquired through use, honest concurrent use, weak opposition grounds, bad faith opposition, and technical/procedural defects in opposition filing.
Yes. Strong defence requires evidence supporting your claims – usage proof (invoices, advertisements), market presence evidence, prior use documentation, sales data, and proof of distinctiveness. Our platform guides you on specific evidence needed.
Typically 18-36 months from counter-statement filing to final order. Timeline varies based on: evidence filing deadlines (3-4 months each party), hearing scheduling (6-12 months), and final order issuance (varies by Registry workload).
Hearings are attended by IP attorneys. Both parties (through their attorneys) present oral arguments, reference written submissions and evidence, respond to Registrar’s questions, and make final arguments. Our package includes hearing brief preparation and coordination with attorneys you choose.
If opposition is allowed, your application is refused. You have appeal options to the Appellate Board (separate legal proceeding not covered in this package). Our team can guide you on appeal viability and next steps.
Yes. At any stage, you can negotiate settlement with the opponent – coexistence agreement, withdrawal of opposition, limitation of goods/services, or other mutually acceptable terms. Settlements can save time and costs for both parties.
