So much depends on a successful brand creation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A new name must meet commercial and marketing purposes. Equally important are the legal requirements. Is the name free (available) and legally suitable? Older rights can be fatal or a name may legally be difficult to define. It has a twofold effect. Without good legal guidance in the creative process, a false start is lurking.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-media-text alignwide has-media-on-the-right is-stacked-on-mobile is-vertically-aligned-center\" style=\"grid-template-columns:auto 30%\"><div class=\"wp-block-media-text__content\">\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Conflicts<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If you have a conflict, please contact us so that we determine what the possibilities are.

By using the name, trade name rights can be invoked. You can act against newer trade names if there is confusion, given the nature of the companies and the locations. Trade name protection can be minimal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Company names can be registered as a trademarks. A trademark registration does not depend on the location and reputation. Without a trademark registration, a similar company can use the same name in another region without you being able to do something about it. This third party can even prevent you from operating in that region even if you were previously active.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Without a trademark registration, your logos and other distinguishing signs are not protected. To effectively take action against the abuse of your domain name or abuse on the Internet, trademark registration is essential. Moreover, a trademark registration has a strong deterrent effect; third parties will less likely abuse or hook up. In short; registration of your company name as a trademark is highly recommended.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-media-text alignwide has-media-on-the-right is-stacked-on-mobile is-vertically-aligned-center\" style=\"grid-template-columns:auto 30%\"><div class=\"wp-block-media-text__content\">\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">IP audit<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The value of a company is determined by the status and strength of its Intellectual Property Rights.
