Why Hire a Trademark Lawyer?

When it comes to trademark and intellectual property issues, hiring an attorney is always a smart choice. When you hire a lawyer, your trademark registration has a 50 percent greater chance of approval. An experienced lawyer can mean the difference between protecting your intellectual property and losing your rights.

In Phoenix, some trademark lawyers do transactional work, and others handle litigation. Find an attorney with the right focus:

  • Transactional: These attorneys can offer assistance with applying for and registering a trademark. Transactional attorneys can explain the application process, advise you about the strength of your trademark, and counsel you on any issues during the application process. They can also appeal your case if the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) denies your application.
  • Litigation: These lawyers provide help with defending existing trademarks. Litigation attorneys can research and address problems with other businesses using your trademark. They can also take your trademark case to court if necessary.

Phoenix trademark attorneys can help with a variety of intellectual property issues. Common trademark concerns include:

  • Developing a Strong Trademark: Knowledgeable Phoenix trademark attorneys know what types of phrases, names, and graphics you can trademark. They also understand how to create a unique trademark that the USPTO will accept.
  • Applying for a Trademark: When you register a trademark, you must describe your case with specific language and provide clear examples of how you plan to use your mark. Experienced trademark attorneys in Phoenix know how to craft a successful trademark application and help you build a strong case.
  • Maintaining a Trademark: Trademark attorneys with years of experience understand that trademarks need maintenance every few years. The best lawyers will walk you through the necessary maintenance so you don't lose the rights to your trademark.
  • Protecting a Trademark: As a trademark holder, you have to defend your mark. That includes actively looking for improper uses and stopping infringers in a timely manner. A top Phoenix trademark lawyer can help you find and stop infringers with cease and desist letters. Attorneys can also pursue legal action for you to defend your rightful trademark.

How to Find the Best Trademark Lawyer in Phoenix

Start your Phoenix trademark lawyer search by looking for an attorney who is a member of the State Bar of Arizona. Lawyers who offer legal assistance and provide legal services in Arizona must have a license to practice in the state.

The majority of Arizona lawyers become members of the State Bar of Arizona by getting a law degree from an accredited school and passing the Arizona Bar Exam. Before practicing, applicants also have to undergo a physical fitness and mental and emotional health assessment from the Arizona Board of Law Examiners.

Arizona lawyers who don't take the state's bar exam can transfer their admission from other states. However, they must also complete a thorough background investigation. This ensures that they are mentally, emotionally, and physically fit for the job.

Before deciding to work with any Phoenix trademark lawyers, research their background:

  • Find out if attorneys are in good standing with the State Bar of Arizona by requesting their disciplinary history. This is important because some jurisdictions in the state require lawyers to have a certificate of good standing.
  • Read their biographies carefully and learn more about their specialties. Confirm that they specialize in trademark law and that they have enough experience to take your case successfully.

Whether you need help with trademark registration or protection, you need a lawyer who understands the details of intellectual property law. Confirm the following before hiring a trademark lawyer in Phoenix:

  • Your lawyer's schedule and how long the process will take.
  • Your attorney will update you by email or phone regularly so you know how your trademark case is progressing.
  • Your lawyer will supervise any paralegals or legal assistants closely and will oversee your case personally.

Whether you want to register a trademark or you need help protecting one you already own, a Phoenix trademark lawyer can help. Find a top trademark attorney in Phoenix and get the legal advice you need today.

  • How long have you worked in trademark law, and how much of your current work involves trademarks?
  • How many trademarks has your firm registered?
  • What are your fees for trademark registration?

  • Do you handle all of the work for your clients, or do you have assistants to help with research?
  • Do you have any tips for making a trademark as strong as possible?
  • Are there any reasons I shouldn't register a trademark?
  • Can you help me protect my trademark after it's registered?

  • 5 min read

Copyright is an intellectual property (IP) right recognized by U.S. law that protects original works of authorship, such as literary, dramatic, musical and other creative works. Copyright not only covers artistic products, such as novels, paintings, movies and songs, but also business-related works, like software code, architectural plans, website designs, training manuals and marketing reports.

Copyright does not protect facts, ideas, systems or methods of doing things, but it can protect the way such things are expressed in writing, through sound or visually.

Trademark a Name Cost

What Does Trademarking a Name Cost?

Filing a trademark for your business name with the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) will cost between $225 and $600, plus legal fees. You can register with most states for $50-$150 if you don't want protection outside your state.

Trademark protection covers the designs, symbols, words or phrases that identify your business as a source of products or services and sets them apart from competitors' offerings. Business names, logos, and product labels can all be trademarked. If your company sells services instead of goods you would technically use the term "service mark" instead of tradema

What Does Inducing Infringement Mean?

Inducing infringement means that a party is responsible for someone copying an idea without permission which can take the form of a trademark, copyright, or patent infringement. The party didn't do the infringing, but the infringement is still their fault.

For example, let's say someone invents a self-inflating balloon and then patents it. The inventor then sells the patent to a major company, and now the balloon is sold in every department store. Years later, the inventor says he still owns the patent and sells it to a different company. Once the second company starts selling self-inflating balloons, the first company can sue it for infringement, and it can sue the inventor for inducing infringement. While he didn't infringe
