Trademark application rejection without actionable guidance

Small business owners file trademark applications through USPTO or filing services, receive rejection notices citing vague reasons like 'likelihood of confusion' or 'descriptiveness,' but lack clear direction on how to revise their application. Current trademark attorneys charge $500-1500 just to interpret the rejection letter.
