Trademark Application Requirements in Miami
The trademark filing process can be long and filled with potential setbacks. Even when things go smoothly, approvals can take up to six months—and if errors are made, it could mean rejection and lost time.
That’s why Miami businesses rely on our expertise. We know what the USPTO looks for and how to overcome application hurdles. Let Empire Business Law handle the details so you can stay focused on growing your business in one of the country’s most dynamic markets.

What Is a Trademark Name?
Trademark names must meet legal requirements to qualify for protection. These include:
✔ Being distinct from other registered trademarks
✔ Being used as an adjective—not as a noun or verb
Following these rules ensures your Miami brand stays legally enforceable and easily identifiable.
A great example of this is . . . “Do you have a Q-Tip?” Instead, you’d say: “Do you have a cotton swab?” Similarly, you shouldn’t ask someone for a "Kleenex” but instead, for a tissue.
Ideally, a trademark should also be:
- Easy for people to pronounce
- Not too long
- Recognizable or not too complicated
- Simple by design
What Is an Example of a Trademark in Miami?
You may be surprised to learn that company and product names aren't the only things you can trademark. You can also trademark a:
- Symbol (example: McDonald's "M" or Golden Arches symbol)
- Slogan (example: Burger King "Have It Your Way" line)
- Colors (example: Target's Red Bullseye)
- Sound (example: NBC three-note chime)
What Are the Benefits of Trademark Registration in Miami?
Trademark registration helps eliminate confusion between your brand and others in the market. In Miami’s competitive business landscape, a registered trademark keeps your identity intact and ensures customers recognize your brand over others.
As your brand gains traction in Miami, a trademark helps preserve the reputation you've built. Without it, competitors could use your name to sell lower-quality services or products. A registered trademark protects your good name and helps customers continue to associate it with trust and quality.
Having the official ® (registered trademark) service mark next to your name adds credibility and validity to your brand. Contact Empire Business Law and Get The Help You Need For Your Miami Business Today!
