Can a trademark watch service guarantee that my trademark will not be infringed?
No, a trademark watch service cannot guarantee that your trademark will not be infringed.

In such situations, your recourse against an infringer may be reduced significantly if they argue that you permitted the infringment by failing to police your mark.
