Questions before you get started
No. Copyright generally protects original creative expression, while trademark law protects brand identifiers used to distinguish goods or services.
Copyright protection can arise automatically when an eligible original work is fixed in a tangible medium, but registration provides additional legal benefits and is required before certain U.S. infringement actions.
Government fees, deadlines and processing times can change. For Canadian trademark information, review CIPO resources. For U.S. trademark information, review the USPTO trademark resources. LLC formation requirements and fees vary by state.
