Market disputes, abandoned trademarks, and similar designs may require litigation. Many trademark rights are interpreted under the Lanham Act, adding to these difficulties. Our trademark attorneys can assist you with complicated technical issues.

Trademark Applications – Not all trademarks are created equal. There are various factors that affect the “strength” of a trademark.

Suggestive – Suggestive marks are protected at the second highest level. They suggest a product’s quality or feature but don’t describe it.

Descriptive – Descriptive marks describe the product and is less protected.

Generic – Generic marks receive no protection. They are often known by their common name.
