For trademark protectition of a word " ie bodog, digg" do i register trademark in US alone or in every country What im trying to understand is companies like Bodog, Digg etc have registered the words Digg,Bodog etc and hence no one can buy a domain with the words in. My question is I want simular protection of "myname" , so that once I start a business "myname" cannot be used by other internet site owners trying to cash in etc. Did the sites like Digg and bodog simply register a trademark in the USA alone or do i have to register a trademark across every nation in the world. Thanks

How can I found out if a company will file a lawsuit against me if I use the same name/trademark? Basically, I am starting a business and there are two companies that already have the name that I want to use. One company explicity states that their name is a registered trademark on their site. I am sure that the other company does too. One company is a Dutch IT firm and the other is an international nightclub with locations in St. Barth's, New York City and the Hamptons. My company will be in a completely distinct and different industry. What I want to know is, can i register my company (as an official trademark) using the same name given that it is in a different industry. Is there a good chance that they will try to sue me if they find out about my company name? I am more worried about the nightclub than the IT people but both pose a threat clearly.

The existing trademark name belongs to a medical devices manufacturer -- a company that is in a completely different field whatsoever, with NO possible way of being confused with such a book or its work. It seems that an author should be able to, but these matters are legal, not commonplace. I have contacted their company trademark attorney on record, as found through the USPTO.gov web site. No word yet, although it is the holiday season. In the interim I was hoping someone might know. Thoughts?
