While registration of a trademark in the State of Texas is not necessary, it can be beneficial. Crain Caton & James’s Intellectual Property Practice Group can help obtain the registration as it provides certain benefits, including putting the rest of the State of Texas on notice of a claim ownership of a mark in commerce in the State in connection with your goods or services.
The Crain Caton & James Intellectual Property Practice Group helps clients to select trademarks and other indicia of source which can be protected at law, which are sufficiently different from other marks to proceed to registration, and to properly use the mark to maintain those rights. We work with clients to address the necessary maintenance every five years and to avoid actions which could jeopardize those rights and registrations.
