What is trademark law?
Trademarks are part of the so called IP or “Intellecual Property” (trademarks, patents, designs).
In addition to trademark law, the protection of intellectual property and fair competition is guaranteed by a large number of other legal provisions which are regularly significant in trademark law cases. Essentially, these are the Unfair Competition Act (UWG), the protection of names under the German Civil Code (BGB), the protection of companies under the German Commercial Code (HGB), and copyright, design and registered design law and most important: regulations of the the EU.

What are trademarks?
Trademarks serve to identify the goods and/or services of a company. They are intended to distinguish the goods and/or services of one company from the goods and/or services of another company. In addition, trademarks fulfill an advertising function for companies, they promote recognition and identification with the company’s products and services, and they are part of the company’s image.
In principle, all so-called signs which are suitable for distinguishing goods and services can be protected as trademarks.
goods and services. For example, the following are protected under trademark lawWords Letters Numbers
images, such as logos
three-dimensional designs (e.g. the shape of a product or its packaging)
other appearances, including colors and color combinations
sounds, such as tones, melodies and noises (sound marks)
odors (olfactory marks)

Most frequently, companies use word marks, figurative marks or the combined word/figurative mark (e.g., graphically depicted words).Protection of trademarks can be achieved in different ways – through entry in registers (register marks), through use in the course of trade or through general awareness in the trade (notoriety). In the case of legal disputes regarding not registered marks, it is up to the owner of the disputed mark to prove that the mark is known within the relevant public or is generally known. This can lead to massive costs, for example for obtaining expert opinions in court proceedings. It therefore makes sense to effectively protect trademarks as early as possible through registration and ongoing monitoring.
Trademarks can be applied for with different geographical ranges. The German Patent and Trademark Office (DPMA) is responsible for trademark applications in Germany, the European Union Intellectual Property Office (EUIPO) for trademarks in the European Union, and the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO) for international registrations that extend beyond Germany.
