TRADEMARK SERVICES
Why trademark your business name or brand name?
- Federal trademark registration provides protection and brand recognition by giving you the exclusive right to use the name nationwide in connection with your goods or services.
- Trademark registration allows you to enforce your right to prevent others from using your mark (infringement) by filing a suit in federal suit.
- Once your brand is trademarked you are able to monetize it through licensing fees.
