Withdrawal Of Attorney
Use this form if you are seeking to withdraw as the Attorney of Record for a pending application. A withdrawal should not be filed for an existing registration, because any appointment is presumed to expire automatically at the time of registration. Within this form, you must be able to state clearly the reason(s) for the request to withdraw, and verify that you have taken all required steps (as set out in the body of the form) prior to the submission of the request.

Revocation of Attorney/Domestic Representative and/or Appointment of Attorney/Domestic Representative
Use this form to revoke and/or appoint an attorney or domestic representative.
Note: The owner of a mark may file and prosecute his or her own application for registration of the mark, or he or she may be represented by a practitioner qualified under 37 C.F.R. §10.14 to practice before the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) in trademark cases. 37 C.F.R. §§2.11 and 10.14.
If the applicant's address is outside the United States, the applicant may appoint a Domestic Representative, upon whom notice or process in the proceedings affecting the mark may be served. The designation would serve the purpose of bringing a foreign party who takes advantage of the United States trademark registration system under the jurisdiction of the United States legal system. Any juristic entity may serve as a domestic representative.
If the owner files a revocation of an existing power of attorney, future correspondence will be sent either to (1) the owner, if no new attorney is appointed; (2) the address as listed as part of any new power of attorney; or (3) the domestic representative, if no attorney is appointed.
If the owner is represented by a practitioner qualified under 37 C.F.R. §10.14 to practice before the USPTO in trademark cases, the Office will communicate only with the practitioner, unless that representation is terminated without replacement. If the owner contacts the Office regarding the application, the Office will advise the owner that matters can be discussed only with the owner's appointed attorney.
