A: You can potentially claim a trademark that is listed as "abandoned - No Statement Of Use Filed," but you would need to refile for the trademark yourself. An abandoned trademark is one that the previous applicant did not complete the required steps to maintain.

You would need to conduct a thorough search to ensure no other parties have claimed the trademark since it was abandoned. After confirming its availability, you can file a new application with the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

The cost of filing a new trademark application with the USPTO typically ranges from $250 to $350 per class of goods or services. Additional costs may arise if you need assistance with the application process or if any issues arise during the review.
