Very interesting and helpful, thank you both. I'm thinking of trademarking my new idea.

[@inventRight]

@@wisconsinchristian wonderful

[@quanagee2424]

Very informative. Since it takes about a year for the trademark to be registered, can you use it at all during the pending process?

[@tamarapesterschklar5301]

Yes. You can't use the (R) symbol, but you can use a TM after you are satisfied that your mark is clear for use and registration

[@Dapper_Dean]

So is she saying that if you use the same trademarked name(like a common word name). But the products are totally different or unrelated. Then it's okay? For example: 'Shark' vacuum and Greg Norman's 'Shark' golf apparels.

[@inventRight]

@@Dapper_Dean I think so.

[@tamarapesterschklar5301]

I'll give you a typical lawyer answer... it depends. Depends on who the Examining Attorney is at the USPTO that looks over your application. Depends on whether there is overlap in trade channels, etc. per the DuPont case. Depends how aggressive other party is in enforcing their rights.

If you have a registered domain name does that give you some measure of protection 1st come 1st served during the registration process.
