Frequently Asked Questions
What is a trademark and why does my brand need one?
A trademark protects your brand name, logo, slogan, or other identifiers that distinguish your business from others. Registering a trademark gives you legal rights to stop others from using a confusingly similar brand and helps protect the value you’re building.
Do I need a trademark if I already own the domain or social media handles?
Yes. Owning a domain or social media account does not give you legal ownership of the brand name. A registered trademark is what provides enforceable legal rights and protection at the federal level.
Can you help me determine if my brand name is available?
Yes. As part of the process, we assess potential conflicts and risks before filing. This helps reduce the chances of rejection and avoids costly disputes with existing trademark owners.
What happens if my trademark application is rejected or challenged?
Not all refusals mean the application is dead. Many issues can be resolved through legal responses and strategy adjustments. We handle USPTO Office Actions and guide you through next steps if challenges arise.
How long does the trademark process take?
Trademark registration typically takes several months, depending on the USPTO’s review timeline and whether any issues arise. While it’s not instant, filing early helps establish your rights sooner.
What’s the difference between using ™ and ®?
The ™ symbol can be used once you begin using a mark in commerce, even before registration. The ® symbol can only be used after your trademark is officially registered with the USPTO.
Can I trademark a name, logo, and slogan together?
Each element of a brand usually requires its own trademark application. We help you decide what should be protected now and what can be filed later based on your business goals.
Do trademarks protect my brand internationally?
U.S. trademarks protect your brand within the United States. If you plan to operate internationally, additional filings may be needed. We can help you understand when and where international protection makes sense.
Why work with a trademark attorney instead of filing on my own?
Trademark law is more than paperwork. A strategic filing helps avoid rejection, limits future risk, and protects how your brand will actually be used. Working with Zala IP Law LLC means your trademark is handled with both legal precision and real-world brand insight.
