WHY YOU NEED A LAWYER ON YOUR SIDE

Trademarks Made Simple

splash(gold) (6).png

Whether you’ve just created a brand or have been building one for years, protecting it with a trademark is crucial. Without guidance, the process can feel overwhelming. You may be asking yourself, "Should I trademark my name or my logo first?" or "Does this need to be copyrighted?" The uncertainty can leave you feeling confused and anxious about making the wrong move—and wasting time and money on a trademark that doesn't actually protect your brand.

That’s where we come in. At JMA LAW, we simplify the entire process for you. We walk you through every step, answer all your questions, and make sure you’re making the best decisions for your business. With our legal expertise, you’ll feel confident knowing your brand is fully protected, so you can focus on what matters most—growing your business. Let us take the guesswork out of trademarking and help you MAKE YOUR MARK™ with confidence!

WHY YOU NEED A LAWYER—NOT LEGAL ZOOM OR GOOGLE—FOR

Your Trademark

You may have considered using online services like LegalZoom to file your trademark. However, it’s important to understand the limitations of these platforms. Their own terms and conditions clearly state that they do not “review your answers for legal sufficiency, draw legal conclusions, provide legal advice, opinions, or recommendations about your legal rights, remedies, defenses, options, selection of forms, or strategies, or apply the law to the facts of your particular situation.” In short, they’re not equipped to provide legal insight necessary to protect your brand.

Relying on Google for answers may leave you with even more questions: “What’s a specimen? What’s a drawing? What class should I file under? Is my mark ‘confusingly similar’ to another brand? How do I respond to an Office Action? What’s a 2(d) refusal?” The trademark process is far more intricate than it appears, and it requires a deep understanding of the law. Once your application is submitted, it will be thoroughly reviewed by a USPTO attorney who will evaluate it based on legal precedents.

With no refunds from the USPTO, it’s crucial to get it right the first time. At JMA LAW, we offer the expertise you need to navigate this complex process with confidence. We handle the details, advocate for your brand, and ensure that your application stands the best chance of approval from the start. Let us help you protect your brand with precision and care.

  • What is a trademark?
    A trademark is any word, name, symbol, phrase, or any combination, used or intended to be used to identify and distinguish the goods/services of one seller or provider from those of others, and to indicate the source of the goods/services.
  • Do I need a trademark?
    If you are selling or promoting (or are preparing to sell or promote) a product or service under a certain brand name or logo, then yes, you should get a trademark. A trademark gives you exclusive rights to use that brand in connection with your products and services. Without a trademark, someone else can start using your brand for the same products/services, which can confuse consumers about which goods/services are actually yours.
  • Should I trademark my brand name AND logo? Or just one?
    Ask yourself: Would you care if someone else used your brand name or logo for similar goods/services? If yes, you need trademarks for both your brand name and logo!
  • Why Trademark?
    If you don’t trademark your brand, someone else can potentially prevent you from using it. If they register first, you may be restricted to only using the brand in your local area. Expanding outside could expose you to cease-and-desist letters or legal risks. Avoid this—let me help you protect your brand!
  • When is the right time to get a trademark?
    As early as possible! Start the trademark process when choosing a brand name or logo to ensure it’s available. If you use a name already trademarked, you risk legal issues and rebranding. By securing your trademark early, you gain peace of mind and protect your business from the start.
  • I haven't started using my brand name/logo yet? Can I still trademark it?
    Yes! We can file an Intent-To-Use (ITU) trademark application. With an ITU application, we do not have to submit evidence of use with the initial application filing. A few months after we file, we will get a "Notice of Allowance," which means it's time to submit your evidence of use. We will have six months to provide the evidence of use. If six months is not enough time, we can get up to five extensions of six months each. There will be a $100 filing fee per class when you have your evidence of use (i.e. a website screenshot where you sell the merch), and each extension is a filing fee of $125 per class.
  • What is a trademark "class" and how many do I need?
    A class is a category of goods or services you want to protect under your trademark. Similar goods/services fall under the same class, while different ones fall under separate classes. For example, T-shirts and hats are in the same class, but T-shirts and coaching services are in different classes. One class is included in my trademark package, and additional classes require a $350 filing fee per class. You’ll also need one type of evidence of use for each class in your application. Check the next question for examples of acceptable evidence.
  • What is proper "evidence of use" for a trademark application?
    For services, your evidence of use could include: Website screenshot Facebook page Business card Flyer or pamphlet For goods, proper evidence of use may be: Photo of the product Screenshot of the sales page (showing price and checkout) Product packaging Tag on the goods (required for clothing if not sold online)
  • Do I need an LLC first?
    An LLC isn’t required before filing a trademark, but I recommend it. Owning the trademark under your LLC helps protect your personal assets. Trademarks are valuable business assets, instantly increasing your business's value! Let us know during your intake call if you’d like help forming your LLC.
  • Which state are you licensed to practice law in?
    We are licensed to practice law in the Commonwealth of Virginia. However, regardless of where you're from or your business operates, trademarks fall under federal law, so we can assist with those throughout the United States and other countries.
  • What if I'm not in Virginia?
    We have a virtual law office! Regardless of where you are physically, we can meet virtually and securely 24/7. Once you start your engagement with our firm, you’ll have access to your own secure and private Client Portal where you can check the status of your legal services, ask us questions, and upload important documents.
  • How long does a trademark last?
    A trademark can last indefinitely as long as you are using the trademark and file the necessary trademark registration maintenance/renewal. Trademark maintenance is required at year 5 and year 10 to certify you are still using the trademark.
  • Is there a consultation fee?
    We offer a FREE 30-minute session to answer any questions you may have regarding the trademark process to include our packages, filing fees, timeline for engagement, likelihood of registration, etc. Please schedule a call here: TRADEMARK STRATEGY SESSION For consultations regarding our other legal services for business, schedule a call here: BOOK A FREE CONSULT ALL legal questions require a legal consult.
