Which class should I use for trademarking our HR consultancy services?

Senior Trademark Attorney

Class 35 is the appropriate class for HR consultancy and human resources management services. The services included in this class are personnel management consultancy, HR advisory services, and recruitment services.

If your firm also offers training programs, then consider adding Class 41, as it protects educational and training services. If it provides legal or compliance advice in connection with employment, Class 45 is also relevant for legal services. However, for most HR consultancies, Classes 35 and 41 cover the entire business offering.
