Born in 2016
"A growing business doesn't have IP problems and contract problems and compliance problems as separate things. It has growth problems. The legal layer should be one partner that solves all of them."
Global Trademark Company was started in 2016 by Rajatpreet Singh Modi and Zaman Zaidi as a new-age firm to give founders, solo operators, and growing businesses a single legal partner for every legal layer they encounter, from IP and contracts to data privacy, M&A, fundraising, regulatory, and disputes (handled via specialist litigators with transparent fees).
Trademarks were the doorway: the most common first matter, fast to scope, immediately valuable, and the question every founder asks first, "is my name safe?" So we kept the word "Trademark" in the name. But the practice was end-to-end from day one, and it grew into every out-of-court legal layer a modern business needs.
Just as International Business Machines became IBM when its remit outgrew the words, Global Trademark Company became GTC, a full-stack IP and business legal firm.
In 2019 the team began to scale. Today GTC operates with 11 in-house attorneys and 50+ partner attorneys, with 5 offices across the United States, India, the European Union (Bulgaria), China, and the United Kingdom, available across major jurisdictions worldwide. One accountable team, one transparent invoice.

Our values
What we stand for.
The principles behind how we work, for every client, on every matter.
Plain English, always.
We choose the word that's understood over the word that sounds smart. Legalese stays out of our work. Plain English is a sign of confidence, and judges agree.
We show the work.
We state what we do and back it with specific numbers, then let the work speak for itself.
Numbers, names, and dates.
Specific numbers, named attorneys, and dates you can hold us to. "Many countries" becomes "100+ trademark jurisdictions." "Fast" becomes "filed in 5 days."
We pick up the phone.
We write to you, not to "clients" in the abstract. We pick up the phone, meet deadlines, and stay reachable.
Straight about cost and fit.
We tell you what to do and what it costs. Genuine deadlines only, and if something isn't right for you, we'll say so.
