What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? California
How close can business names be (dealing with the same subject matter) before the they trademark infringe?
Would there be an infringement problem for the following two names
1) "empathy in justice"
2) "empathetic fairness"?
If there was already a business named and trademarked #1 would the trademark office grant a trademark for the name of business #2? Could business #1 win a claim in court on infringement?
Sorry for being cryptic with the names but I can't divulge the actual name since it's not yet trademarked and I don't want to alert my competitor that there's something they might need to contest!
Thank you.
