Trademark Transfer Agreement
Maryland
Need advice on Trademark Transfer Agreement.
I recently started a small business and have developed a unique brand name and logo. I have been approached by another company expressing interest in acquiring my trademark rights through a transfer agreement. I am unfamiliar with the legal aspects of trademark transfers and would like to understand the process, potential risks, and ensure that I am adequately protecting my brand before entering into any agreement.
Roman V.
Hello, I wanted to express my interest in helping you understand your trademark rights and the trademark transfer proposal you received. As brief background, I am a US-licensed trademark attorney and have helped clients in similar situations buy, sell, and otherwise transfer trademark rights through transfer agreements. I can also help you prepare and file a federal trademark registration to protect your unique brand name and logo throughout the US. I'd be glad to set up a brief call to learn more about your business and see how I can help. Thanks for your consideration.

Trademark
Massachusetts
Can I trademark the name of my software?
Can I trademark the name of my software if the same name is already trademarked in a different country/state? I am starting up a FinTech company right now and I am trying to trademark the name of my mobile app; however, after some searching, I realized that a company in the UK has already trademarked the same name. It is also a company that makes a mobile app in the FinTech industry - just in a different area of interest. Are there any suggestions for how I would go about trademarking the name of my software, or do I have to come up with a different name?
Roman V.
Yes, it's generally possible to trademark the name of your software, as long as it is not a generic name or descriptive of the product. You should also do a clearance search to make sure no other company is using the same or similar name for similar services. I would be glad to discuss more details and help with the trademark process. Thanks.

Joint Agreement
California
Can a JV hold patents?
I am currently exploring the possibility of forming a joint venture (JV) with another company in my industry. As part of our business plan, we are considering the development of new products and technologies that may be patentable. However, I am unsure if a JV has the legal capacity to hold patents and protect our intellectual property rights. Therefore, I would like to seek advice from a lawyer on this matter.
Jane D.
As a legal entity, a joint venture (JV) can own a patent. Given the temporary nature of JVs and the fact that there will be multiple owners of any patents, there is a complex mix of intellectual property (IP) ownership rights, dispute resolution, and enforcement issues that need to be agreed upon in order to properly protect everyone's intellectual property rights. Consideration will need to be given to what IP ownership and rights will look like during and after the JV and it may be easier to have both companies listed as the patent authors for inventions from the outset (versus naming the JV as the author). A joint IP agreement is the best solution to outline the rights of each party, the process for developing patentable technologies sufficient to be a patent author, filing and prosecuting patents, and future licensing and exploitation of the patent.

Intellectual Property Rights Transfer Agreement
Georgia
Can I transfer the intellectual property rights for a product I created to another company?
I have recently developed a new product and I am considering transferring the intellectual property rights to a larger company that has the resources to manufacture and market it on a larger scale. I want to ensure that I can retain some control or receive royalties from the product's future success, and I am unsure of the legal process and implications involved in transferring the intellectual property rights to another entity.
Benjamin M.
Yes, you can achieve this through an IP license agreement versus a sale of your IP rights. In your license you would want to protect against gray market product manufacturing and also have provisions on how to handle defective products and components during the manufacturing process. I am available for a free consultation if you would like.
Quick, user friendly and one of the better ways I've come across to get ahold of lawyers willing to take new clients.
