Stay ahead of threats to your brand
Trademark Watch
When you entrust your trademark services to us, your portfolio is automatically kept under watch. We monitor the official industrial-property gazettes daily in the countries where your marks are registered and give you early warning of any application that could conflict with them, before it becomes a registration.
What We Offer
Daily — Opposition
Daily Gazette Monitoring
We systematically review every official trademark gazette published daily across Latin American jurisdictions, ensuring no potentially conflicting application goes unnoticed.
Coverage in Your Jurisdictions
We watch the trademark offices of the Latin American countries where your marks are registered with us, protecting your portfolio in every jurisdiction where you are already present.
Instant Conflict Alerts
When a potentially conflicting mark is detected, you receive an immediate notification with full details and our expert recommendation on how to proceed.
Opposition & Enforcement
Beyond monitoring, our team is ready to file oppositions or take enforcement action within the applicable deadlines once a threat is identified.
Our Edge
Expert Review.
Zero Noise.
Most watch services flood you with automated alerts — many of them irrelevant. At MK Global IP, a qualified IP attorney reviews every potential conflict before any notification reaches you.
Every potential conflict is evaluated for visual similarity, phonetic resemblance, commercial overlap, and jurisdiction-specific legal standards. You only hear from us when there is a real reason to act.
Zero false-positive policy. Our attorneys personally sign off on every alert before it reaches your inbox — because your time is too valuable for noise.

Why Trademark Watch
The Cost of Not Watching
Opposition windows are short
Most Latin American countries give you 30–60 days from gazette publication to file an opposition. Miss the window and the conflicting mark may register unchallenged.
Registration creates rights
Once a confusingly similar mark is registered, cancellation proceedings are costly, uncertain, and can take years. Prevention is always cheaper than enforcement.
Each jurisdiction publishes on its own terms
Argentina, Colombia and Venezuela publish independently, in different formats, on different schedules. Manually tracking every gazette is practically impossible without a dedicated service.
Your brand is your most valuable asset
For global companies operating in Latin America, trademark protection is not optional — it is the foundation of brand equity and market position.
Protect Your Trademark Portfolio
Entrust your trademark services to us and your entire portfolio stays under watch — with reports of any potential oppositions in every gazette.
