Federal Trademarks and Connecticut (CT) State Trademarks
A trademark
is a word, phrase, symbol, design or combination
of words, phrases, symbols or designs that identifies
and distinguishes goods produced by one party from
those of another. A service mark is a word, phrase,
symbol, design or combination of words, phrases,
symbols or designs that identifies and distinguishes
services by one party from those of another.
Both trademarks and service marks tend to serve as a guarantee of quality and
consistency and in some situations, federal registration of these marks may serve
as proof of ownership. |
