Trademark FAQs
What Is a Trademark?
A trademark is a brand often displayed as a word, name, slogan or symbol that is used in trade with goods to indicate the source of the goods and to distinguish them from the goods of others. A service mark is the same as a trademark except that it identifies and distinguishes the source of a service rather than a product.
What Is the Term of a Trademark?
A federally registered trademark can last forever with proper use and maintenance. Contact us today to discuss your trademark needs.
Do I Need to Register My Trademark?
No. However, federal registration has several advantages, including notice to the public of the registrant's claim of ownership of the mark, a legal presumption of ownership nationwide, and the exclusive right to use the mark on or in connection with the goods or services set forth in the registration.
What Protection Does a Trademark Provide?
Trademark rights may be used to prevent others from using a confusingly similar mark but not to prevent others from making the same goods or from selling the same goods or services under a clearly different mark. In order to prevent others from making the same goods, the inventor needs to obtain patent protection.
What Are the Benefits of Federal Trademark Registration?
- Constructive notice nationwide of the trademark owner's claim.
- Evidence of ownership of the trademark.
- Jurisdiction of federal courts may be invoked.
- Registration can be used as a basis for obtaining registration in foreign countries.
- Registration may be filed with the US Customs Service to prevent the importation of infringing foreign goods.
