What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Florida
I have been using my company's name since the beginning of this year and am starting the process of getting it trademarked. However, I stumbled on another company that has a trademark registered that is similar to our company. They have registered a simple character mark, for example, as XXX Beauty where they list hair products, skin care products and make up as their goods. Our company's name is XXX Cosmetics. We sell makeup and skin care products. We want to register our logo which has our name in a stylized form with colors. Will my mark get refused because of this similarity?
I saw two other marks that used the exact same name and had basically the same products that were both registered. The only difference was one was a simple character mark and the other was the same word in a unique font and colored. So I'm wondering???
