Trademark FAQs - related questions & answers

Question: How are characters like a hypen treated in a tradmark?

The pronunciation of the trademark is the most controlling factor. So whether or not similar marks have dashes separating elements of one or the other mark wouldn't make much difference in deciding.

Question: How do I find out whether a mark is already registered?

Answer:
You may conduct a search free of charge on the USPTO website using the Trademark Electronic Search System (TESS)
