Trademark is one of the elements of a business whose legal protection should be taken care of among the first.
The value of a brand and trademarks owned by leading companies significantly exceeds the value of their equipment, buildings, etc.
Late or incorrect registration, or non-renewal of registration of a trademark can lead to great losses or even bankruptcy of the company.
Even before our era, artisans began to mark their goods with distinctive signs, so that merchants and consumers in other parts of the world are confident in the quality of their products.
TM is any designation or combination of designations that make it possible to distinguish the company’s products and services from similar products from other manufacturers.
Trademarks can be verbal, pictorial, volumetric, combined, sound, three-dimensional, etc.
Company name, logo, slogan, name, combination of numbers and letters, graphic element, picture, label, package, color combination, soundtrack, etc. can be registered as a trademark.
