Mark P.
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.

Trademark Search
New York
Can you explain the process of conducting a trademark search and its importance for my business?
I am in the process of starting a new business and want to ensure that the name and logo I have chosen are not already trademarked by someone else. I have heard about the importance of conducting a thorough trademark search to avoid potential legal issues down the line. I would like to understand the steps involved in conducting a trademark search, the resources available for conducting one, and the potential consequences of not conducting a search before using a trademark.
Danny J.
I'd be happy to explain the process of conducting a trademark search and its critical importance for your new business venture. This is a crucial step in protecting your brand and avoiding potential legal pitfalls. Here's a brief overview of the trademark search process: 1. **Preliminary Search** - Start with a basic online search using search engines and social media platforms - Check the USPTO's Trademark Electronic Search System (TESS) for existing federal trademarks 2. **Comprehensive Search** - Expand your search to state trademark databases - Look for common law trademarks (unregistered but in use) - Consider international databases if you plan to operate globally 3. **Analysis of Results** - Evaluate the similarity of existing marks to your proposed trademark - Assess the likelihood of confusion in the marketplace 4. **Decision Making** - Determine if your desired trademark is available or if modifications are needed The importance of a thorough trademark search cannot be overstated. It helps: - Prevent potential infringement claims - Save time and resources in rebranding if conflicts are discovered later - Strengthen your trademark application if you decide to register While it's possible to conduct a basic search on your own, the process can be complex and time-consuming. Interpreting the results requires a deep understanding of trademark law and precedents. Overlooking a similar mark or misinterpreting search results could lead to significant legal and financial consequences. Given the complexities involved and the potential risks to your new business, it's often advisable to consult with a trademark attorney. A professional, like myself, can provide a comprehensive search, offer expert analysis of the results, and guide you through the next steps, whether that's proceeding with registration or exploring alternative options. Would you like more detailed information on any specific aspect of the trademark search process or how professional assistance could benefit your particular situation? Feel free to reach out to me.

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.
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.

Trademark Cease And Desist
California
Can I ignore a trademark cease and desist letter if I believe my use of the mark falls under fair use?
I recently received a cease and desist letter from a company claiming that my use of their trademark infringes on their rights, but I believe my use of the mark falls under fair use as I am using it for commentary and criticism purposes. I am unsure if I should ignore the letter or if I need to take any legal action to protect myself.
Tabetha H.
Ignoring a trademark cease and desist letter is risky, even with a potential fair use defense. While trademark fair use for commentary and criticism is recognized, its application depends on specific factors like how prominently you're using the mark, whether consumers might be confused, and if your use is commercial. Ignoring the letter could lead to escalation, including a lawsuit where you'd need to defend yourself at significant expense. A better approach is sending a response letter explaining your fair use position and why your use doesn't constitute infringement. This demonstrates you're taking the matter seriously while asserting your rights. Consider consulting with an IP attorney to evaluate the strength of your fair use defense and craft an appropriate response that might prevent further legal action.

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.
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
