Understanding Trademark Protection and How It Works

  • 8 min read

Key Takeaways

  • Trademark protection applies to words, phrases, logos, colors, sounds, and more that identify and distinguish a brand’s goods or services.
  • Trademark rights arise from both use (common law) and registration with the USPTO, with registration offering stronger legal advantages.
  • A trademark only protects against confusion within the same or similar industries.
  • Effective trademark protection requires consistent usage, active enforcement, and periodic maintenance.
  • Registering a trademark with the USPTO can expand protection to national and even international markets.
  • Not all elements are eligible for trademark protection—generic or merely descriptive terms generally cannot be protected.
  • Trademark enforcement can involve cease and desist letters, litigation, and international customs protections.
