U.S. Patent & Trademark Office Registration Of
Internet Domain Names
By Michael Kroll, Registered Patent Attorney

Obtaining a trademark will help in preventing others from using the same or very similar domain name, if for example they simply try to substitute .firm for .com.

With the possible implementation of additional top level domain names, it is more important than ever to obtain Federal Trademark protection of a domain name in order to protect a valuable asset.

Additionally, it will help to prevent confusion and dilution of a valuable domain name. For example, Michael Kroll, registered patent attorney, and author of this web page, owns Federally Registered Trademarks for the following ten trademarks:

KROLL ^Ž Quality patent & legal services Reg. No. 2,426,394

KROLL.COM ^Ž Quality patent & legal services Reg. No. 2,424,759

WWW.KROLL.COM ^Ž Quality patent & legal services Reg. No. 2,430,978

HTTP://KROLL.COM ^Ž Quality patent & legal services Reg. No. 2,426,395

HTTP://WWW.KROLL.COM ^Ž Quality patent & legal services Reg. No. 2,422,953

The interplay between domain names and Federal Trademarks is in its infancy and the governing law is not as clear as it will be in a few years. Accordingly, to insure that proper Federal Trademark protection was obtained, all ten of the above were registered as US Trademarks.

It is submitted that the most important and possibly the only necessary trademark is "Invention"&"Kroll", but since there are diverse opinions as to which ones should be registered, all ten were obtained.
