The TM Pro Vetted List
Your Defense Against Trademark Scams
The Gold Standard for Verified Legal Counsel
The trademark industry has a growing problem. Every day, hundreds of scammers—posing as legitimate attorneys or government officials—target trademark applicants with phishing emails, fake invoices, and high-pressure tactics. They prey on the unrepresented, and they are becoming dangerously good at imitating the real thing.
Vetted by an Expert, Not an Algorithm
I’m Trevor A. Caudle, Esq., and after 21 years in the trademark trenches, I’ve seen how these bad actors operate. I built TM Pro to give you a way to fight back.
This is not a "pay-to-play" directory. You cannot buy a spot on this list. I am the gatekeeper here.
Every attorney listed has been:
Researched:
I’ve verified their credentials and standing with their State Bar and the USPTO.
Vetted for Track Record:
I look for a proven track record of actual trademark expertise.
Personally Interviewed:
I have personally interviewed these individuals to ensure that they are who they say they are.
How to Use This List
If you have been contacted by someone claiming to be a trademark lawyer, or if you are considering hiring counsel you found online, check this list first. If their name is here: You are looking at a professional I have personally vetted.
If their name is NOT here: Proceed with extreme caution. They may be legitimate, or they may be part of the wave of scammers currently flooding the USPTO ecosystem. Ask them why they are not on my list.
