Frequently Asked Questions
Can you lose a trademark if you don’t protect it?
Yes, you can lose a trademark if you don’t actively protect it. Trademark owners are responsible for monitoring and enforcing their rights to prevent unauthorized use.
Failure to take action against infringement can lead to the weakening or loss of exclusive rights.
If a trademark owner allows others to use the mark without taking legal action, it may become diluted or even generic over time, losing its distinctiveness and protection.
Additionally, consistent non-enforcement can result in the trademark being deemed abandoned.
Therefore, it is crucial for trademark owners to actively monitor and enforce their rights to maintain the trademark's legal protection.
