What Is a Word Mark?

A standard-character word mark covers wording, such as a business name, product name, or slogan, without claiming a particular font, color, or logo design. Registration depends on the mark and the goods or services identified in the application.

Applicant Review & Signature

Every application must be reviewed and personally signed by the applicant or an appropriate authorized signatory before submission. For a business entity, this means a person authorized to sign for that entity. Trademark Lady™ does not sign for applicants.

An inquiry form on this page is not a USPTO application or an application signature.
