Somerville, MA - At its core, a trademark is a legal tool that can be attached to the sale of a product or service, distinguishing the property of a single company and allowing customers to decide whether to take a chance and purchase the product or idea.

Although a trademark can take traditional forms (names, logos, and slogans), it can be anything that identifies a brand, including sounds, animations, video clips, scents, colors, product designs, product packaging, and more. With trademarks, companies protect themselves from competitors seeking to steal their glory, ideas, products, or aesthetics.

Cohn Legal, PLLC, is dedicated to protecting clients' trademarks and intellectual property throughout the US and around the world. Recognizing that getting trademarks can be complex, particularly for those breaking new ground, the law firm is committed to guiding clients through the process of obtaining federal and state trademark protection for their brand assets.

Cohn Legal, PLLC has experience with businesses in hemp/CBD law, startup law, food/beverage, jewelry, celebrities, publishing, toys, sports, fashion, personal care/cosmetics, and other consumer products.

To register a trademark, the firm begins the application process with the USPTO, which requires administrative information about the business and descriptive information about the trademark. The team has a dedicated workflow to help clients accurately organize their filing information to streamline the application.

Since the USPTO trademark search considers the similarity of the Boston trademarks and the products or services listed under them, the attorneys, while conducting the search, consider variations of appearance, spelling, and sound to determine their availability. Once the search is complete and the application is reviewed, the USPTO's attorney assesses the procedural and substantive aspects of the application to decide whether to approve it.

If the application moves forward, it will be published in the Official Gazette for 30 days to allow any opposing party to file a claim. If the USPTO approves the application and no one else opposes it, the client receives an official registration certificate recognizing them as the sole owner of the trademark in the country. If the application is rejected, Cohn Legal, PLLC helps the client understand the trademark office's action and draft a professional response.

The law firm's legal services also include global trademark search and clearance, management of worldwide trademark portfolios, trademark registration with customs, and more.

As brand identity continues to play a critical role in business growth, securing trademark protection has become increasingly important for companies across industries. Cohn Legal, PLLC remains focused on helping businesses navigate the trademark process and protect the intellectual property that supports their products, services, and reputation.
