FAQ
Trademark, design and patent support questions
Should I register my trademark before launching my business?
It is usually helpful to review trademark availability and filing strategy before investing heavily in a name, logo, packaging, or launch. The appropriate timing and scope should be confirmed with a qualified IP professional based on your markets and plans.
What is the difference between a trademark, design, and patent?
A trademark generally distinguishes a brand, name, logo, or related sign; a design protects aspects of a product's visual appearance; and a patent protects a qualifying technical invention. A qualified IP professional can determine which rights may apply to a particular asset.
Can you help foreign companies file in Korea?
Your authorized Korean IP professional handles filing. Modical can separately organize client-directed meetings, messages, and existing-file transfers.
Are professional filing fees included in Modical fees?
Not unless a proposal expressly says so. Modical's coordination fee, professional filing or representation fees, and government or authority fees are presented separately.
