Business Name Packages

Registering your business name with Start.biz provides your business with protection against “passing off” – (link to FAQ on passing off) the common law term used when another business copies a trade name (either intentionally or unintentionally).

Your annual subscription means that you have peace of mind when it comes to safeguarding your business’ identity. We will investigate potential cases of passing off on your behalf should you alert us to a potential case of passing off. As part of this service, we will undertake negotiations and instigate legal proceedings, instruct solicitors and counsel where necessary and cover legal fees (including our own costs) up to £10,000*.

Business Name Protection

Business Name Protection is our most affordable Business Name Protection package, conducted by Start.biz. This is most suitable for sole traders; business owners who have already registered their business at Companies House; and those who already have (or do not need) a website or email address. Start.biz will cover any unforeseen legal fees (including our own costs) up to £10,000 in the instance of a positive case of passing off.
