I represent a diverse mix in a vast array of specialties, including litigation, contracts, compliance, business and financial strategies, and emerging industries. Credit for this foundation of strength goes to those who taught me. Skilled professors and professionals fostered my powerful educational and professional background. Prior to law school, I earned dual Bachelor’s degrees in Business Administration & Accounting from Peru State College. I received a Master of Business Administration degree from Chadron State College. My ambitions did not stop there. While working full time as a Senior Accountant for the University of Missouri, Columbia, I achieved the lifelong goal of becoming a licensed Certified Public Accountant (CPA). Mizzo provided excellent opportunities and amazing experiences. Managing over $50M in government and private research funding was a gift. As a high ranking professional in the Department of Research, I was given priceless insight into the greatest scientific, journalistic, medical, and legal minds in the world. My passion for successful growth did not, and has not stopped. I graduated summa cum laude (top 3%) with a Doctorate in Law, emphasizing in urban, land use and environmental/toxic tort law from the University of Missouri, Kansas City. This success lead to invaluable experiences of serving as Hon. Brian C. Wimes' judicial clerk for the U.S. District Court for the W. D. of Missouri, as a staff editor/writer for UMKC Law Review, and as a litigation and transactional attorney with Lathrop GPM (fka Lathrop & Gage). My professional and personal network is expansive, with established relationships throughout the U.S. and overseas. Although I engage in legal practice all over the country, I maintain law licenses in Missouri, Kansas, and Nebraska. Federally, I hold licenses in the W.D. and E.D. of Missouri and the District of Nebraska. To offer extra value, efficiency, and options, I maintain a CPA license and am obtaining a real-estate brokerage license.

"I contacted Parachini Law after I had sent multiple unanswered information requests a third party. Mark not only send out a record request to the address specified, but also sent out additional requests at other possible business addresses to ensure the request was received. As a result, I finally received the information I was looking for. The firm was very professional to work with."

Trademark Assignment Agreement

Maryland

Asked on May 10, 2025

Can a trademark assignment agreement be terminated if the assignee fails to meet certain conditions?

Can a trademark assignment agreement be terminated if the assignee fails to meet certain conditions, such as failing to actively use the trademark or not maintaining the quality standards set forth in the agreement? I have recently assigned a trademark to another company, but I am concerned that they are not using the trademark as agreed upon and are damaging its reputation. I want to know if there are any legal grounds for terminating the assignment agreement and reclaiming the trademark.

Sara S.

Answered Jun 17, 2025

Hi, It depends on what your assignment agreement termination provision permits, and what is described as a breach of such agreement (material or no). You can learn more by discussing this with a licensed intellectual property attorney.

Asked on Oct 21, 2024

Can I trademark a phrase that includes a commonly used word?

I am an entrepreneur looking to start a clothing brand, and I have come up with a catchy phrase that I believe would be a great fit for my brand. However, the phrase includes a commonly used word. I am wondering if it is possible to trademark this phrase, considering the presence of the commonly used word, and what steps I would need to take in order to do so.

Dolan W.

Answered Nov 5, 2024

Hello! Yes, you can trademark a phrase that includes a commonly used word, but there are specific considerations. In trademark law, the distinctiveness of the phrase as a whole is what matters. A commonly used word on its own might not qualify for trademark protection if it is way too generic or descriptive. However, when combined into a unique phrase that consumers could associate with your brand, it can become eligible for trademark protection. Here’s an example: Suppose your phrase is “Boldly You” for a clothing brand focused on self-expression. While “Boldly” and “You” are both commonly used words, the combination “Boldly You” is unique and could be distinctive enough for consumers to recognize it as representing your brand, especially if it isn’t merely describing the products directly. Nevertheless, make sure your phrase has a unique or distinctive character that is more than just descriptive of the clothing products you plan to sell.. Best of luck, Dolan

Asked on Jun 4, 2025

Can I trademark a phrase that is already being used by another company?

I recently came up with a catchy phrase that I believe would be a great brand name for my new business. However, upon conducting a search, I discovered that a different company is already using a similar phrase for their products. I'm wondering if it's possible to still trademark my phrase, considering the potential for confusion and infringement, or if I should come up with a different brand name altogether.

Sara S.

Answered Jul 18, 2025

Short answer: probably not. It is best to consult with an experienced trademark attorney regarding this and the USPTO process for trademark usage.

Asked on Jul 24, 2024

Can I trademark a slogan that includes a common word?

I am in the process of starting a small business and have come up with a slogan that I believe perfectly captures the essence of my brand. However, the slogan includes a common word that is used frequently in everyday language. I am unsure if I can trademark this slogan or if it would be considered too generic to receive trademark protection. I want to ensure that I am legally able to protect my slogan and prevent others from using it in a way that dilutes my brand or causes confusion among consumers.

Meghan T.

Answered Aug 30, 2024

Hi! Trademarking a common phrase can be difficult. Trademark law prioritizes distinctive, unique marks that clearly distinguish goods or services. Generic, widely-used phrases often lack this distinctiveness, disqualifying them for trademark protection. However, a common phrase can acquire secondary meaning. This happens when it becomes so closely associated with a specific brand or product that it has unique significance in consumers' minds. For instance, if a phrase has been used extensively and exclusively for a product and is well-known, it might qualify for trademark protection. To increase the chances of successfully trademarking a common phrase, demonstrate secondary meaning. This involves providing evidence of: Long-term, continuous use of the phrase Significant marketing efforts to promote it Consumer recognition of the phrase as associated with your brand Distinct branding elements linked to the phrase The eligibility of a common phrase for trademark protection depends on specific circumstances and the jurisdiction.
