Trademark Registration
is a legal protection for your Brand name which can’t be copied by any other
party Legally. If in case they copy that brand then through the Rights under
Intellectual Property Act. The owner of the Trademark can recover the whole profit
earned with the name of Registered Trademark.
Many of my clients have
said that their lenders or investors felt more comfortable once registration
was achieved in important countries.
if you have
registrations in major countries such as US , UK you can persuade amazon, eBay
etc. to shut down infringing websites without the time and expense of court
action.
Customers even search
and see you are serious about your rights. It is so cheap to do you look very
cheap if you don’t do it.
If you need to prevent
infringing use by competitors the court will assume that your right is valid
until the other side has proved that it is not. The percentage of registrations
found invalid is minuscule. Once you have registration it can be renewed
forever as of right. In the UK registration no 1 remains valid as the owners
renewed it every ten years since 1876. You have to police the use of the mark,
use and renew and then it’s yours forever.
If you have a
registration potential licensees have an easy way of finding you. Lenders can
give loans secured on registrations.
