Trademark Legal Questions and Answers

Trademark Cease And Desist

California

Asked on May 2, 2025

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.

Answered May 13, 2025

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.

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.

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.

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.
