Q: Looking to get a trademark where in Hartford area can I make this happen?

A: I used to work in Hartford but now am based in Milford. If you're set on using a Hartford firm, McCormick Paulding & Huber is pretty good. Try to work with Mallory Hein, she's been doing trademarks for quite a while.

A: To secure a trademark in the Hartford area, you have several options worth considering.

The U.S. Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) handles all federal trademark registrations, and while they don't have a physical office in Hartford, you can work with a qualified intellectual property attorney in the area. Downtown Hartford has numerous law firms that can help guide you through the trademark process, particularly along Main Street and Asylum Street.

For direct filing without attorney representation, you can submit your application online through the USPTO website. However, given the specific class codes you mentioned (002, 005, 022, 023, 029, 037, 038, 050), which cover various categories including textiles, fabrics, and artistic materials, working with a local attorney might help ensure proper classification and protect your creative work effectively. The Connecticut Bar Association can provide referrals to qualified attorneys in Hartford who handle trademark matters. You might also consider visiting the Hartford Public Library's business resource center, where you can access valuable trademark databases and resources to research existing trademarks before filing.
