EXPERT INVESTIGATORS
When conducting In-Use Investigations, expertise makes the difference. That's why we partner with Marksmen®, a global leader in the field with a unique combination of knowledge, techniques and experience. In addition, Marksmen shares our standards and values, focusing on the needs of our customers and delivering high-quality information quickly and reliably.

BEYOND PUBLIC RECORDS
Key to the value of our In-Use Investigations is the broad range of information sources used. In addition to traditional sources, investigators conduct in-depth research using the Internet, industry-specific sources, and telephone interviews of company representatives to uncover information including:

• Company profile
• Description of goods/services
• Avenues of trade
• Current and first use of the mark
• Use of the mark on the Internet
• Abandonment
• Geographic scope
• Channels of distribution

Information is corroborated with at least two sources, whenever possible. Investigators provide a comprehensive In-Use Report detailing and analyzing their findings.
