Domain theft, also known as domain hijacking, occurs when someone gains unauthorized access to your domain registration account and transfers the domain name to another party. This can disrupt your business operations, cause financial losses, and damage your brand’s reputation.
Q2: What is cybersquatting?
Cybersquatting involves registering, selling, or using a domain name with the intent of profiting from the trademark of another person or business. Cybersquatters often target well-known brands, hoping to sell the domain at an inflated price or use it to mislead consumers.
Q3: How can I prevent domain theft and cybersquatting?

READ MOREPublicity rights, also known as personality rights, are the rights of an individual to control and profit from the commercial use of their name, voice, likeness, and other identifiable aspects of their persona. These rights are designed to protect individuals from unauthorized exploitation of their identity.
Q2: Why are publicity rights important in the age of AI?

Q1: What is a trademark?
A trademark is a symbol, word, phrase, logo, or combination thereof that identifies and distinguishes the source of the goods or services of one party from those of others. It provides legal protection for your brand and helps prevent others from using similar identifiers that could confuse consumers.
Q2: Why should I trademark my name, slogan, or logo?
Trademarking your name, slogan, or logo provides legal protection, helping to prevent others from using similar marks that could cause confusion. It enhances your brand’s credibility and value, allowing you to enforce your rights and take legal action against infringers. It also gives you exclusive rights to use the trademark in connection with the goods or services you provide.
Q3: How do I choose a trademark?
Choose a distinctive and unique mark that clearly identifies your goods or services. Avoid generic, descriptive, or commonly used terms. Conduct a thorough search to ensure the mark isn’t already in use or too similar to existing trademarks. This step can help avoid legal issues and rejection of your application.
Q4: What is the process for trademarking a name, slogan, or logo?
1. Search: Conduct a trademark search to ensure your mark is unique and not already registered.
2. Application: File an application with the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) or relevant trademark office in your jurisdiction. Include a clear representation of the mark, the goods or services it will cover, and the basis for filing.
3. Examination: The trademark office examines your application for compliance with legal requirements and checks for conflicting marks.
4. Publication: If approved, the mark is published in an official gazette, allowing others to oppose the registration if they believe it will harm their existing trademark rights.
5. Registration: If no opposition is filed or any opposition is resolved in your favor, the trademark office registers your mark and issues a registration certificate.
Q5: How can a lawyer assist in the trademark process?
A trademark lawyer can help with conducting a comprehensive search, preparing and filing your application, responding to any office actions or oppositions, and providing legal advice throughout the process. They ensure your application is thorough and compliant, increasing the likelihood of successful registration and protecting your brand effectively.
