Trademark Attorney Casper, WY

SCHEDULE YOUR 15-MIN DISCOVERY SESSION

This discovery session gets you concrete legal advice on when and how to apply for a trademark and also includes a manual preliminary knockout search to identify identical or nearly identical hits, which gives you an idea if your proposed word mark (names or phrases) or design mark (typically logos) will be problematic.

We discuss your brand and business trajectory; where are you now, where you want to go, and how we can get you there. You’ll also get a general trademark education, and by the end, you will understand the basics of what is and is not material you can trademark, the nuances of trademark law as it relates to “creative” versus generic names and phrases, and visual appearances. We will discuss how obtaining a trademark applies to your business, answer any questions regarding the strategic timing of obtaining a trademark, answer any questions specific to your business and determine if a trademark is right for you.

Should you decide to move forward with a trademark application with us within 7 days of your session, this fee is applied to your Package pricing.

GET 6 STEPS TO TRADEMARK YOUR BUSINESS NAME

Build Your Brand with Confidence through a Trademark Attorney Servicing Casper, WY

Creating a brand and building a business from the ground up is an immense challenge that can be incredibly rewarding- but what if somebody used your hard work for their gain rather than your own? That is what could happen if you do not trademark your brand.

A trademark stops anybody from using your company name, logo, slogan, or other identifying mark for their business instead of yours. People want to avoid getting ripped off- especially not when there are simple legal steps they can take to stop it from happening.

Trademark attorneys can help businesses at all stages through the application and approval process- and it all starts here with a 15-minute session. First, consider what this means for you as a Casper business owner.

What Does the Law Say about Trademarking in Casper, WY?

In short, anyone with a brand name, logo, sound clip, or other imagery (all referred to as a ‘mark’) that they want to make exclusive to their business can apply to have it trademarked. They can do so through the Wyoming Secretary of State (for a State Registration or Common Law trademark) or the US Federal Government for a Federal Registration. We recommend Federal registration so your brand is secure across the country.

First, complete an application with a copy of the mark to register. The application must be notarized, signed, and submitted along with the relevant fees. Additional information is required to support the application, so it is best to consult with a trusted trademark attorney when beginning the process.

Wyoming trademark laws state that anything can be trademarked if it is not deceptive, misleading, immoral, or scandalous. It also must not include images of or references to any person, institution, belief, or nation that suggests a connection that does not exist. Any living person's name, image, or signature can only be used with their written and confirmed permission.

Furthermore, if you have a name or logo in mind, you can only use it if nothing else closely resembles it. Even if you genuinely thought it up yourself, you could face problems if someone has already registered a mark that is too similar.
