Once you have done a trademark
search and found that there are no conflicting trademarks in
your industry, the Moore Legal Group can prepare and file a
trademark application for your business name, brand or logo.
Registering a trademark with the United States Patent and
Trademark Office (USPTO) gives the owner of the trademark
registration exclusive nationwide rights to use the name, brand,
or logo in question. No one else can use or register a
confusingly similar name, brand or logo after your filing.
Our Register My Trademark service includes:
-
Your
federal trademark application prepared by a trademark attorney
-
Application sent to you within 5 business days for your
approval
-
Once
approved by you, the application is then filed electronically
with the U.S. Patent & Trademark Office
-
Legal
follow up on your trademark application, ensuring routine
USPTO inquiries such as Office Actions are properly addressed
on your behalf
Register your
trademark now. The Register My Trademark service does not
include responding to substantive USPTO challenges or third
party opposition to the trademark application. Any further
representation can be obtained through the Moore Legal Group at
a reasonable hourly fee. |

Conduct a Comprehensive
Trademark Search |

It is critical to submit the proposed
trademark or business name for a Comprehensive Trademark Search.
A comprehensive search is the first step in determining the
uniqueness of your mark, and its similarity to other,
pre-existing marks. Wrongfully registering or using a trademark
already in use could result in lawsuits from other companies
claiming trademark infringement. A clearance search will also
determine whether the proposed trademark or business name is
available to be used in the first place, saving you valuable
time and money. For a good, real world example, take a look at
this article from 4Hoteliers.com.
The Comprehensive Trademark Search includes:
-
Thorough federal trademark database search
-
Complete state trademark database search
-
Common law trademark search
-
Internet database search
-
Summary search report and originality opinion by a trademark
attorney
Results of the Comprehensive Trademark Search are typically
available within five (5) business days.

This is the most prudent way to
proceed in protecting and registering your trademark. This
service combines the Comprehensive Trademark Search and the
Register My Trademark services. Attempting to blindly register
your trademark may seem less expensive on the front end, but if
the mark is too similar to pre-existing registrations, or is
already in use in commerce elsewhere, the USPTO will simply
reject its submission.
For these reasons, we always advise doing a Comprehensive
Trademark Search, then registering your trademark.

Registering your federal trademark with the
United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) is just the
first step. The USPTO does not necessarily inform you that your
trademark is about to expire, or of other maintenance
requirements that may apply to your mark. The USPTO also has no
obligation to police the streams of commerce to determine
whether your trademark rights have been infringed. Though
trademark protection can be indefinite, it is not so without
continued maintenance. To prevent the loss of your trademark
protections, it is imperative that your mark should be closely
monitored.
If others begin using your trademark, and
you do nothing to stop it, you have already begun the legal
process of losing your rights to that mark. Early detection of
potential trademark infringement is vital. The failure to
properly defend your trademark against trademark infringers
could eventually diminish the strength of your trademark to the
point of abandonment and cancellation of your registration.
Moore Legal Groups monitoring service
provides regular searches for potential infringement and
improper uses of your trademark. This ensures that your
trademark is being protected.
The Monitor My Trademark service includes:
- Regular
searches for confusingly similar trademarks in the U.S. Patent
and Trademark Office database
- Monitoring
of your trademark registration renewal and maintenance dates
- Reports
sent via e-mail every quarter
If infringements or improper use of your
trademark are found, litigation may not be necessary. Moore
Legal Group is capable of enforcing your trademark rights. If a
violation is discovered, an attorney will contact you to discuss
your options.

Copyright My Work |
|
|
Copyright is the legal right granted to an
author, composer, playwright, publisher, or distributor to the
exclusive publication, production, sale, or distribution of a
literary, musical, dramatic, or artistic work. Copyright protects
you in substantive ways from those who may plagiarize your unique
work.
While copyright protection technically exists once a work is
reduced to writing (or any other tangible medium), a copyright
must be registered with the U.S. Copyright Office before a party
may sue in federal court for its infringement. Even more important,
perhaps, is that those who register their copyrights immediately, or
within three months of publication, can also get statutory damages
and attorneys fees for any infringement. The copyright symbol © is
only given its real teeth once the work its affixed to is registered
with the U.S. Copyright Office. Our fee for the Copyright My Work
service includes all applicable federal filing costs and expenses.
Copyright protection is available for the following types of
works:
-
Literary works. Novels, nonfiction prose, poetry, newspaper
articles and newspapers, magazine articles and magazines, computer
software, software manuals, training manuals, manuals, catalogs,
brochures, ads (text), and compilations such as business
directories.
-
Musical works. Songs, advertising jingles, and instrumentals.
-
Dramatic works. Plays, operas, and skits.
-
Pantomimes and choreographic works. Ballets, modern dance,
jazz dance, and mime works.
-
Pictorial, graphic, and sculptural works. Photographs,
posters, maps, paintings, drawings, graphic art, display ads,
cartoon strips and cartoon characters, stuffed animals, statues,
paintings, and works of fine art.
-
Motion pictures and other audiovisual works. Movies,
documentaries, travelogues, training films and videos, television
shows, television ads, and interactive multimedia works.
- Sound
recordings. Recordings of music, sounds, or words.
-
Architectural works. Buildings, architectural plans or
drawings.
Your work cannot be copyrighted unless it is
recorded in some tangible, viewable form. Common information (such
as calendars and rulers) cannot be copyrighted. However, if you have
created an original work in any tangible form, and it has value to
you or others, you need to get federal copyright protection today.

Monitor My Copyright |
|
| Monitoring your rights is the only way to know if
someone is illegally "borrowing" or outright stealing, your creative
work. Once you have copyright protection, you have the right in
federal court to damages and attorneys fees for any action you must
pursue to enforce that right.
Our Monitor My Copyright service makes periodic checks of the
public domain and provides you quarterly reports by email as to any
violations or infringements that are found. If infringements or
improper use of your copyrighted work are found, litigation may not
be necessary. Moore Legal Group is capable of enforcing your
copyright rights. If a violation is discovered, an attorney will
contact you to discuss your options.
