Frequently Asked Questions
What is a trademark protectability search?
A trademark protectability search, also known as a trademark clearance search, is an investigation conducted to determine if a particular mark can be registered and protected as a trademark in the U.S. without infringing on the rights of any pre-existing mark.
Why is a trademark protectability search important?
It helps potential trademark registrants avoid legal disputes and potential infringement claims by identifying potential conflicts before filing for registration. Furthermore, it can save time and money by identifying obstacles to registration early in the process.
What is the USPTO?
The USPTO stands for the United States Patent and Trademark Office. It is the federal agency responsible for granting patents and registering trademarks in the U.S.
What databases does one check for a protectability search?
The primary database to check is the USPTO’s online database, TESS (Trademark Electronic Search System). It's also wise to check state trademark databases, domain name registries, and business directories.
Can I conduct a protectability search on my own?
Yes, you can. The USPTO's TESS database is publicly accessible. However, due to the complexities of trademark law and the nuances of searching, many choose to hire professionals to conduct a thorough search.
If my search shows no conflicting marks, am I guaranteed registration?
No. While a clear search reduces the risk of conflicts, the USPTO may still refuse registration based on other factors like descriptiveness, genericness, or potential confusion with a mark not found in your initial search.
How is "likelihood of confusion" determined?
The USPTO examines multiple factors, including the similarity between the marks in sound, appearance, and meaning, the relatedness of the goods/services, and the conditions under which the goods/services will be marketed.
If I find a potential conflict, can I still use the mark?
It depends. If the conflicting mark is in a completely unrelated industry, there might be less risk. However, if there's a high likelihood of confusion, it's advisable to reconsider using the mark or consult with a trademark attorney.
How can a trademark attorney assist with the protectability search?
A trademark attorney can provide expertise in structuring and conducting a comprehensive search, interpreting results, and offering legal advice on the risks associated with using or registering a particular mark.
