Trademarks

What is a trademark?

A trademark is generally a word, phrase, symbol, or design, or a combination thereof, which identifies and distinguishes the source of the goods of one party from those of others. It’s an essential step to protecting your brand!

Should I file a state or federal trademark?

Filing in your state creates rights only in that state. The protection of your brand becomes very limited to only that geographic area. Filing a federal trademark application creates rights throughout the United States.

How long does the process take?

There are many factors that affect how long it takes to register a trademark. In fact, there’s no guarantee your trademark will ever register, as it may be refused for various legal reasons. Usually, the process takes 12 to 18 months. Registering your trademark is a very complex procedure.
