BENEFITS OF REGISTRATION
TM INFRINGEMENT: Trademark infringement is the unauthorized use of a registered trademark or a similar mark that creates confusion among consumers as to the source of the goods or services being offered. It is a violation of the exclusive rights of the trademark owner, which can include the right to use, license, and prevent others from using the mark.
The following are some examples of trademark infringement:
1. Using a similar or identical mark on a similar or related product or service without permission from the trademark owner.
2. Copying a well-known trademark or logo, or using a variation of it, to take advantage of established brand recognition.
3. Using a trademark in advertising or marketing campaigns that creates a likelihood of confusion with a registered trademark.
4. Registering a domain name or social media handle that is identical or confusingly similar to a registered trademark.
5. Counterfeiting a trademarked product or using a trademark on counterfeit products.
When trademark infringement occurs, the owner of the mark has a legal recourse. They can take legal action against the infringer to stop their unauthorized use of the mark and seek damages, such as lost profits or harm to the reputation of the mark. It is important for businesses to protect their trademarks through monitoring, enforcing, and registering their marks.
