Intellectual Property (IP) Services
What is a Trademark and why you need Federal Trademark Registration?
- A trademark(or service mark) can be understood as any word, name, symbol, or device, or any combination thereof, which identifies and distinguishes the goods (or services) provided in connection with the mark from the goods (or services) of others. A mark also indicates the source of goods (or services), even if the source is unknown to consumers.
- Stated alternatively, a trademark can be a brand name, logo, package design, or can be identified in combination of them used by the goods or service provider to distinguish itself from others in the market-place.
We provide federal trademark registration services with USPTO. Trademark registration provides protection against unauthorized use of your registered mark in the market-place. The USPTO registered marks has a presumption of ownership and national priority of the trademark when used in connection with goods and/or services. USPTO registration gives constructive notice to the public. After 5 years of USPTO registration, the trademark becomes incontestable.
