Our belief<\/span><\/h2>\n

We believe that we should receive the fees according to the amount of substantially professional<\/span> work. For instance, our professional fees are not calculated just based on the numbers of classes (Nice) as for trademark matters. No additional fees<\/span> are necessary just by adding classes<\/span>. For designs, our professional fee<\/span> for the second design<\/span> is not necessary<\/span> under certain conditions. As described above, our fees were set flexibly so that the clients can easily use our services.<\/p>\n

Our fee schedule for typical services is as follows.<\/p>\n
