`MOTION TO REMAND
`
`
`MOTION TO REQUEST SUSPENSION OF THE APPEAL AND
`REMAND OF THE APPLICATION FOR SUBMISSION OF NEW EVIDENCE
`
`
`Before the Trademark Trial and Appeal Board on Appeal
`
`
`
`The trademark examining attorney requests that the Trademark Trial and Appeal Board suspend the
`appeal proceeding and remand the application to the trademark examining attorney under 37 C.F.R.
`§2.142(d) in order to submit additional evidence into the record relevant to the issue on appeal.
`
`

`

`
`
`The trademark examining attorney is making this request at this time because a new trademark
`examining attorney has taken over the case and wishes to supplement the evidence of record to support
`the current refusal under Trademark Act Section 2(d) that the services of applicant and registrant are
`related. The evidence consists of the following:
`
`
`
`1. Definition evidence for the wording “business information” and evidence by third parties showing
`that the name and contact information of a particular business, including businesses that provide
`legal services, is business information. Please see attachments from Collins Dictionary, Wikipedia,
`ApricotLaw Blog, AttorneyatWork, and PaperStreet.
`
`2. Definition evidence for the wording “referral” and evidence by third parties showing the purpose
`of lawyer referral services is to provide business information about lawyers and law firms to
`consumers. Please see attachments from Your Dictionary, Alameda County Bar Association,
`Alaska Bar Association, Allegheny County Bar Association, and MassLegal Services.
`
`3. Evidence by third parties showing that the same entity commonly provides (i) legal referral
`services, including lawyer referral services, and (ii) business advice, inquiries or information.
`Please see attachments from Erie County Bar Association, Indy Lawyer Finder, Legal Shield, Legal
`Zoom, Oregon State Bar, Palm Beach County Bar Association, and Rocket Lawyer.
`
`
`Accordingly, the undersigned trademark examining attorney requests suspension of the appeal in this
`case and remand of jurisdiction to the examining attorney based on the aforementioned rationale.

`Create. claim and verify to make it into the pack.
`
`ifyou use Google, you've seen the “local packs" at the top of the page. Local packs display local businesses
`that match your search requests. And using these packs, potential clients can find. learn about and select a
`lawyer. sometimes without even clicking through to an actual website. That's pretty powerful.
`
`These ‘3 pack" local listings are controlled in Google's local business dashboard. called Google My Business
`{OMB}. Without properly setting up your listing. there's little chance you'll make it into the pack.
`
`Every lawyer should create. claim and verify their Google My Business listing. Not sure how? This post is here

`Google is pretty good about knowing. through information on the internet. that some businesses already
`exist. 50 ifyour law firm has been around for a while, cha nces are good it has an existing listing.
`
`That said, go to Google My Business and create an account. Once you've done so, you'll be asked to type in the
`name ofyour business. If a llsting already exists, you can simply select your business and then proceed to
`verify. if not, you'll be asked to finish inpuning your business information.

`Looking to take your local marketing campaigns to the next level? Google gives you some insights into calls,
`Visits to your website and requests for directions to your office. However, as helpful as it might be, this data
`only provides a small glimpse into your performance in local. Here are a few best practices that can give you
`more data and in5ight5 into your marketing campaigns
`
`Tracking Numbers
`You want to use a unique tracking number as your primary number on your GMB listing. Your GMB
`dashboard offers insights into how many clicksetooall on a mobile device your listing receives 7 but that
`doesn't tell you how many unique callers you're receiving. It may be that all 20 calls reported in your
`dashboard insights are from the same caller. Using a tracking number can give you better insights into who is
`calling how many times they are calling, what days people are calling and what times calls are happening.
`This data can help you understand where to put your marketing dollars. This data can also help you
`understand how important your listing is

`
`For some law firms, more calls are happening through the business listings than the website. So, if you are
`basing the success of your online marketing efforts solely on how many calls are coming from your webs'ne‘
`you aren‘t looking at the full pictu re.
`
`Related: For more how-tos, read “Time to Use Call Tracking with OMB"
`UTM Parameters
`
`UTM parameters are basically code that gets added onto your website URL These parameters let you track
`your website traffic in more detail. This provides more specifi
`information in GoogleAnalytics so you can
`understand where those website visitors are actually coming from, giving you additional insight into various
`marketing efforts.
`
`Related: For more on how to implement UTM parameters, read “UTM Parameters Keep Tabs on Local Leads "
`
`GMB the DifferenceaMaker
`
`Having your law firm's OMB listing properly set up and optimized is crucial. It can be the difference-maker in
`showing up when local searchers are looking for representation.

`Local Presence is Needed and
`
`Consistency is Key
`
`
`
`Consistency means that i‘fyou are using “Street” for your office address on your website, all of the listings should also have “Street”
`fully spelled out and not listed as “St.' Some directories will automatically abbreviate certain parts of the address which cannot be
`controlled, and Geogle is smart enough to understand this, but itis best that everything starts as consistent as possible.
`
`We recommend referring to this list of acceptable abbreviations. The same theory goes for your business name. Some businesses will
`do business under alias names, but itis imperative thatthe business name you use on your website is transferred to all listings, and
`multiple names are not being used. Phone numbers are also an element that a business may vary which numberthey provide to
`clients. but it is vital to use a specific local number to each office and make sure this is reflected in each directory:
