“YOU’VE WORKED HARD TO BUILD A NAME FOR YOUR BUSINESS. PROTECT IT . TRADEMARK IT .”

Trademark is basically the identity of a brand. It is a visual symbol, which is used by a business to distinguish its goods or services from other similar goods or services originating from a different business. It basically comprises of the shape of the goods, it’s patterns, designs, and packaging, etc. The name, logo, product or service is the crux of a business and thus, formulate a part of its trademark. It becomes very important for any of the business to protect its intellectual assets with Trademark Registration so that no other similar entity can use its brand name and goodwill without licensing and prior permission.

By trademarking your company’s name, you are protecting the brand, its reputation, and your ideas, all of which you undoubtedly invested a great deal of blood, sweat, and tear working on. And while the trademarking process itself will take time in all areas considered, nothing would be worse than not protecting your brand and potentially be faced with an infringement lawsuit from a larger company.

Letter, Word, Number, Phrase, Graphics, Logo, Sound Mark, Smell or a mix of Colors.
