Entrepreneurs, listen up! Understanding trademarks can be crucial for protecting your brand and business identity since your trademark may be a valuable asset that distinguishes your products or services from competitors. By registering a trademark, you can gain exclusive rights to use that mark in specific ways. Knowing about trademarks can save you from potential legal issues and decrease the likelihood that your hard work building a brand doesn't go to waste. I'll talk with Mariessa Terrell about Trademarks: What They Are and How They Work. Mariessa Terrell, Esq. is an attorney advisor in the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) Trademarks Customer Outreach office. Before that, she was a USPTO trademark examining attorney, solo trademark practitioner, in-house trademark attorney consultant for two large defense contractors, and trademark and fashion law professor at Howard University School of Law (HUSL). In 2015, Mariessa was recruited to manage the Trademark Law Clinic at HUSL and helped develop a Patent Law Clinic in 2019. Mariessa earned her J.D. from HUSL and her B.A., magna cum laude, from Pace University. She is admitted to the Maryland and District of Columbia bar associations. In her spare time, Mariessa volunteers with the High Tea Society, a life skills program for Washington, D.C., girls.
