Don’t worry, we’ve gathered the most important questions our clients have asked before—because they may be the same questions you’re thinking right now.

A trade name is the official name of your company registered with DED, used in licenses and contracts. A trademark is the brand identity (name, logo, symbol) used in marketing and packaging, which can be legally protected.
Yes. IP rights are valuable intangible assets. They can be bought, sold, licensed, mortgaged, and included in company valuations. Brands like Apple and Nike derive most of their value from their IP.
No, the law does not protect “abstract ideas.” Intellectual property rights only apply to tangible expressions of an idea, like writing a book, inventing a device, or designing a product. Without turning your idea into something concrete, it cannot be legally protected.
A trademark protects the name, logo, or symbol that distinguishes your product or service from others.
Copyright, on the other hand, protects creative works like books, music, films, images, and software.
