You Might Not Have Any Trademark Rights at All

There's one thing you must do to have trademark rights, and without it you may have none at all. Chris Clark explains why a business registration or domain name doesn't make your brand yours.
In this episode:
- In the U.S., trademark rights come from use: being the first to use a name with your particular goods or services.
- Registering with the USPTO adds valuable rights on top of that use.
- A Secretary of State business filing or a domain name doesn't mean the name is clear or that you own it as a brand.
The takeaway: Your LLC filing and your URL don't give you trademark rights; use and registration do.
