Hetherington Group Announces New Trademark Investigations Service
May 2, 2022
Today, Hetherington Group (Hg) announces a new service: Trademark Investigations. In this new offering, two expert Hg analysts will conduct open-source investigations (OSINT) to support attorneys in clearing the landscape for new brand identities, asserting territorial ownership, and defending existing trademarks against unauthorized third-party infringement.
"We are thrilled to enter the arena of trademark investigations," stated Hg's president Cynthia Hetherington. "It is a natural progression for us, as we have been conducting due diligence and business intelligence for over 25 years. In this exciting era of innovative startups and online merchandising, brand awareness and trademark protections are a vital part of a company's identity and legacy. We welcome the opportunity to work in partnership with legal professionals seeking to protect their clients' brands and trademarks."
Hg understands a client's desire to minimize costs, risks, and delays in securing a new brand identity or defending against third-party infringement. Its analysts work with intellectual property attorneys to understand client-specific needs and develop a strategic investigations plan to provide clear, concise, and complete attorney work-products.
Hg's investigators scour open sources, social media networks, public records, and internet archives to substantiate legal cases defending territory for brands and trademarks, including competitive intelligence on first use of a mark and subsequent trademark appearances. Hg's detailed reports provide a thorough understanding of when, where, and how a trademark or trademark infringement appeared.
Hetherington Group understands the legal world and regulatory frameworks in which corporations and privately held companies operate. Its ability to investigate one or multiple jurisdictions including but not limited to North America, Central & South America, Europe, Africa, Middle East, and Asia ensures legally and ethically sound attorney-client products.
