To trademark a product name, business owners need to follow the same process that they would to trademark a company name. For many people, the name of their products is as important -- if not more important -- than their company's name. Many clients have a specific product that they expect will excel. If the name of the product differs from the trademark company name, it is a good idea to register a trademark product name.
Gerben Law Firm can help you register a trademark product name if you decide that you want to trademark a product name. As we do for trademark company names, we will conduct detailed searches to identify potential problems that you might encounter when you try to register a trademark product name. For trademark product names, USPTO requires you to provide specific information on your application. And the agency will thoroughly review your application to ensure that you are not filing to trademark a product name for which someone else already holds a similar trademark.
To help you avoid problems when you register a trademark product name, Gerben Law Firm will search federal databases to look for results for similar or identical trademark product names. Even if a company has not registered the exact trademark product names you seek, you could face scrutiny if you try to trademark a product name that is too similar to an existing trademark. After we search the federal databases for those results, we will compile them in a report. Trademark attorney Josh Gerben will send you the report and review each part as thoroughly as you'd like. He can answer your questions about the results and how to trademark a product name with USPTO.
Our federal search is a great start to your efforts to trademark a product name. However, our comprehensive package is the best fit for clients who want to register a trademark product name. This package includes state databases searches and common law searches. Each individual US state allows companies to register for locally recognized protection, including trademark product names. Gerben Law Firm can unearth potential state-level problems and guide you to other regional obstacles.
Gerben Law Firm recognizes clients who register a trademark product name want to use their trademark product names without fear of future lawsuits. That's why we provide our comprehensive search of business and industry-specific databases. It can be a daunting task to find all the companies that operate with a similar name as yours. When you try to trademark a product name, the search must go even deeper, and we look for existing products that might cause problems.
After conducting our comprehensive search, Gerben Law Firm will add the results to our report from the federal search for trademark product names. With all that information, we'll let you decide whether you want to move forward with your efforts to register a trademark product name. Trademark attorney Josh Gerben will explain the likelihood that USPTO would reject your application or that another company might sue you later. If you wish to proceed, we'll complete the trademark filing for you with the US Government.
You should keep in mind that the US Government will not refund that application fee, even if its trademark reviewers determine that you cannot trademark a product name because it is too similar to another trademark. The reviewers would reject a similar but not identical name to avoid confusion within the market. If there are products with very similar names, consumers could be confused about what they are buying. Although that criteria makes it more difficult for you to register a trademark product name, it also grants you protection if you successfully trademark a product name.
