Trademark registration is used to create a brand. Copyright registration is to formally register a tangible body of work (manuscript, screenplay, artwork, musical composition, etc.) already created, to control the use, duplication and publication of the work without the permission of the creator. Many people confuse the two terms. Our services include, but are not limited to, trademark and copyright searches, applications, responding to Office Actions, and maintenance filings for registered trademarks.
