Common questions

Q.How long does trademark registration take in Nigeria?

Registration runs through the Trademarks Registry and typically takes several months. We manage the process and keep you updated at each stage.

Q.What is the difference between a trademark and copyright?

A trademark protects brand identifiers like names and logos; copyright protects original creative works. We advise which protections your assets need.

Q.Someone is using my brand — what can I do?

We can issue cease-and-desist demands, pursue enforcement action and, where necessary, litigate to stop the infringement and recover loss.
