How the Trademark Registration Process Works
This video by Josh Gerben of Gerben Intellectual Property, provides an overview of the process and the steps involved in obtaining registration.
How to Overcome a Likelihood of Confusion Refusal
If you have received a Section 2(d) Likelihood of Confusion Refusal from the USPTO, it means that the examining attorney for your application found your trademark to be too similar to another registered mark.
How to Police and Enforce Trademark Rights
One of the biggest mistakes we see business owners make is not having a proper enforcement program in place for their trademarks. Enforcing your trademark is incredibly important because it can drastically shape the scope of the rights that you have in your brand long-term.
