Defend your trademarkwith focused counsel.
TrademarKraft — a U.S. trademark law practice focused exclusively on USPTO and TTAB matters. Evidence-based defense, transparent pricing, and direct attention from a registered attorney.
A focused trademark practice for brand owners who need it done right.
TrademarKraft serves entrepreneurs, small businesses, and growing companies who need sophisticated trademark counsel without unnecessary complexity or pressure. Our practice focuses exclusively on trademarks — with particular depth in the matters that decide whether a brand survives the registration process and stays protected.
Founder Nyall Engfield, Esq. brings over fifteen years of dedicated trademark experience and personally oversees every matter — accessible to clients throughout the year, not just when deadlines arrive.
Five focus areas, one disciplined practice.
From the urgent forty-day Notice of Opposition deadline to the quiet rhythm of ten-year maintenance, every trademark matter is handled by counsel who does only this work.
Trademark Oppositions
Defending your application before the TTAB.
Evidence-based defense across every ground — likelihood of confusion, descriptiveness, genericness, and abandonment. Counterclaims when warranted, settlement when it serves you, and TTAB advocacy through to final decision.
ExploreOffice Action Response
Turning USPTO refusals into registrations.
Strategic responses to Section 2(d) likelihood-of-confusion citations, Section 2(e) descriptiveness refusals, specimen defects, and technical requirements. Three-month deadlines met with care and the rights you came in with intact.

Maintenance & Renewals
Keeping your registration alive — and incontestable.
Section 8 declarations of use, Section 9 ten-year renewals, and Section 15 declarations of incontestability. We track the windows, prepare the specimens, and counsel on the strategic value of each filing.
ExploreThe measure of our work, in the words of those we serve.
"We received a Notice of Opposition from a much larger company and Nyall walked us through it calmly, identified two affirmative defenses, and the matter settled on a coexistence agreement that left our brand intact."
"Our application had been refused on Section 2(d) and another firm told us to abandon. Nyall's response distinguished the marks on the actual DuPont factors and the Examiner withdrew the refusal. The mark registered."
"Nyall manages our trademark portfolio — every Section 8, every renewal, every Office Action. He quotes pricing up front and we have never been surprised by a bill."
"Best trademark counsel we have worked with. The cancellation petition was technical, the registrant fought hard, and Nyall got the registration cancelled on summary judgment."
"Our application abandoned because our previous attorney missed the Office Action deadline. Nyall filed a successful petition to revive. He saved a brand we had spent two years building."
"Direct attention from a focused trademark attorney is what set TrademarKraft apart. Personal responses, clear procedural choices, consistently excellent work product."
Experience. Integrity. Transparent Pricing.
Trademark work rewards focus. TrademarKraft spends its time in opposition and cancellation proceedings rather than treating them as an occasional sideline — so your Answer, defenses, and evidence strategy are built around what actually persuades the Board.
You also get process-driven cost control — clear, front-loaded guidance on likely budget ranges, when it makes sense to settle versus fight, and how to avoid escalating discovery or motion practice unnecessarily.
The result: a sharper defense for your mark, and tighter discipline over your legal spend.
