The Benefits Of Registering A Federal Trademark published on

As an entrepreneur, you will spend days and weeks coming up with a name for your business or products. Because of the effort put into creating the mark,  protecting the brand of your company is a concern for the business owner. As a result there are benefits to registering a federal trademark!

A Federal Trademark is a word, name, symbol, phrase, or slogan used to mark and distinguish goods or services. The mark indicates their origin throughout the United States. The federal trademark prevents others from using your registered trademark and also protects you from others using a similar mark.

Registering a Federal Trademark.

The internet and social media advertising is exploding into a common marketing tool that every business today must implement into their business model. The use of a trademark is very important for the protection of your business.

 

Registering a federal trademark provides several advantages:

  1. Public notice to the world that you claim to be the owner of the trademark and/or logo.
  2. You will have exclusive use of the trademark and anyone else would have to seek permission and compensate you for the use of your trademark.
  3. You are able to bring an action in federal court if someone infringes on your trademark.
  4. The U.S. registration can serve as a basis to obtain registration in foreign countries.
  5. The ability to record the U.S. registration with the U.S. Customs and Border Protection Service to prevent importation of infringing foreign goods, and
  6. Finally, you will have the right to use the federal registration symbol, which is the R in the circle.

Careless licensing of your trademark could lead to the loss of your trademark protection. Trademarks prevent others from using your brand name, thereby allowing you to protect the quality of the brand’s goods or services in the marketplace. Additional value of your trademark may be realized through licensing the use of your brand by others. Within the licensing agreement, the licensee must agree to quality control provisions for the benefit of the trademark holder, and the trademark holder must exercise those provisions to actively ensure the licensee is keeping up the quality of the brand. An agreement missing these terms is referred to as “naked licensing.” In one recent state court case, the court found the trademark holder had failed to include the terms in the licensing of the brand, and as a result, the trademark holder had effectively abandoned the trademark.
