Trademark Attorney Cheyenne, WY

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.

Look After Your Business’s Branding with a Trademark Attorney Servicing Cheyenne, WY


There is a long list of things to prepare when you begin to build your business, and trademarking your brand should be near the top of your list of priorities. Surprisingly, it is something many new business owners forget about or don’t consider necessary, but failure to do so could jeopardize your entire brand.

Grabbe Law is here to help Cheyenne businesses protect their brands and intellectual property with elite trademark attorney services. We don’t want your hard work wasted, so let us help you.

Trademarking in Cheyenne: How Does It Work?


The point of trademarking is to stop anyone from taking credit for your work or trying to pass it off as their own. It also helps ensure no other company can use your brand as their own.

You can apply for a trademark through the state of Wyoming or the US Federal Government. A Federal Trademark is awarded through the United States Patent and Trademark Office. It is a longer, slower process than State Registration or Common Law Registration in Wyoming, but you generally get better protection.

When you trademark your company name, logo, or slogan, you give yourself and your company an independent identity that cannot be copied. You can trademark:

  • Words

  • Abbreviations

  • Logos

  • Designs

  • Sounds

  • Symbols

This list is not exhaustive. You can trademark almost anything as long as it is original and authentically yours.

You must complete an application form, including at least one copy of your proposed mark, and have it officially signed and notarized. It is then submitted to the Wyoming Secretary of State (or the US federal government, depending on the type of trademark you request), along with the filing fee.

The form itself can seem complex, but a trademark attorney can help.

Are There Any Trademark Restrictions in Cheyenne, WY?

Like most places, Cheyenne has some restrictions about what can be trademarked. The State of Wyoming does not allow businesses to trademark:

  • Deceptive or misleading material.

  • Anything that is considered immoral or scandalous.

  • Something that falsely suggests a connection to any institution, person, belief, or nation.

  • A logo or name that is deemed to be too similar to an existing trademark in the state.

  • Images, logos, or wording that identify a specific living induvial without their explicit consent.

  • Titles that are undescriptive or misdescriptive.

  • Anything depicting the flag or coat of arms of the US or any other foreign nation.

Why Is It Important to Trademark Your Brand?


Although no law states that you must trademark your brand, it is highly recommended that you do so. Why, after putting your time, effort, money, and energy into creating and growing a business, would you want to leave it at risk of intellectual theft?

Infringement laws in Cheyenne and across the US can be complex, and without a trademark, you and your business can be exposed to irreparable damage. Losing months or years of hard work and dedication because you didn’t think it mattered is a shattering blow, don’t let it happen to you.
