If you run a business, you can't afford to ignore trademarks. Join Managing Attorney Craig Morris of the Office of the Commissioner for Trademarks at the USPTO for an informative discussion about this type of valuable intellectual property.
Seating for this free program is limited, so register early.
This program begins by identifying how trademarks, domain names, and business name registrations all differ. You will learn why selecting a strong mark is important, why doing a complete search to avoid a likelihood of confusion is critical, and whether or not you should use an attorney. The discussion will also address what may happen if another trademark owner believes they have stronger rights in a mark and sends a "cease-and-desist" letter.
For more information, call 513-369-6934.
