Did You Know?    
 
 
If Not Registered Someone May Trademark What You Have Begun Using In Commerce.
Someone can apply to register a trademark that you had not registered and are using particularly if they are not aware of your use. You may contest the registration of that mark after it publishes for purposes of opposition.

 


Sellers of goods throughout the ages have put their names on things they produced. Some producers devised symbols or pictures to identify and distinguish their products. Before the 20th century, trademarks were usually symbols or pictures rather than words. Under the common law in each state, a seller who uses any symbol as a trademark acquires the legal right to prevent other sellers from using a similar mark. Many sellers federally register their trademarks for extra protection.
