A search of Federally Registered and Pending Trademarks is recommended for anyone seeking to name a service or product. This search is helpful to determine if someone else has already obtained protection for the name you plan to use in commerce.

• You can perform the search yourself via the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office's TESS database.
  
• For search assistance contact us at (405) 744-6546.
• Search includes Federally Registered and Pending Trademarks only, and does not include state registered or common-law marks.
• For a complete search (federal, state, and common-law marks), please contact the Research Wizard service at the Tulsa City County Library (918) 596-7991 or an attorney.
• For state registrations, contact the Trademark Division of the Oklahoma Secretary of State (405-522-3043). Trademarks intended for use in a single state may be registered with the Secretary of State.
