What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? CA
Hi. I have started a skincare cosmetics company and need help with a trademark question. Let’s call my company ABC Cosmetics (not real name). I have filed LLC paperwork in the state of California for ABC Cosmetics. The first product sold by ABC Cosmetics will be called Renew Me Now. What steps do I need to take to protect the Renew Me Now name? I believe I need to file a trademark at the federal level. But do I need to do anything else at the federal level? Anything at the state level? Do I need to file a Fictitious Business Name with the county or LLC paperwork with the state? I don't think so because the product is being sold by ABC Cosmetics. But I'm not sure and need some advice. Thanks for the help.
