Matt and his team have helped us more than words can express. Starting a business while facing some challenges was incredibly stressful, but they guided us through every step of the process and gave us the confidence to keep moving forward. Their knowledge, professionalism, and support made all the difference in helping us get our business off the ground. We truly can't thank Matt and his team enough. Highly recommend! Thanks Matt!!

Surge Business Law was great to work with during the process of setting up our business partnership. They were responsive, knowledgeable, and made everything feel seamless from start to finish. I worked directly with Matthew Nuzum and he was excellent — professional, thorough, and easy to communicate with. Highly recommend.

Federal registration

Built for the day it gets big.

  • The influencer says your name.
  • The national chain calls.
  • The ad runs coast to coast.

A federal registration covers all 50 states. When your brand grows past Des Moines, the protection is already there.

A filing service fills out the form. We make sure it survives.

Cost Online filing service Surge package
Clearance search Often a quick check for exact matches, or none at all A licensed attorney searches and tells you whether it will register
USPTO filing fee Often listed separately from the advertised price Included for one class
Office action response Often an extra charge, or left to you First one included

Based on our October 2026 review of published pricing from online filing services. Services vary, so check what any quote includes.

Start with the search. Stop if it says no.

Your search fee and first monthly payment come first. If the search shows the name can't be registered, stop there and owe nothing more.

Prices cover one class of goods or services. The first month (the search fee plus the first monthly payment) is non-refundable. Additional classes, office action responses beyond the first, and monitoring after month 12 are extra.

Registration is decided by the USPTO; no outcome is guaranteed. Prior results do not guarantee a similar outcome. Attorney advertising. Surge Business Law PLLC, Johnston, Iowa.
