Intellectual Property

Trademarks can exist from mere use in commerce, in some jurisdictions. You check the industry publications to see if the words or logo are "used in association with goods or services" in the form of a trademark.

You can also search state and federal databases to find which trademarks (or service marks) have been registered. The US Patent and Trademark Office has one at uspto.gov, and many states' offices of the secretary of state have online access as well. Similarly, some other countries (Canada) have online searchable databases, as does the European Union (for a "community" mark).

Or you can hire a search firm to run a search and produce a report.

Obviously, if you are checking a trademark that you intend to use on your own products, the cost of a professional opinion from a trademark attorney may be cheap insurance against having to start over with a new brand if you miss something in your search.

For the most part, digital media is treated as its rough equivalent in physical media; both are covered by the same laws. Thus, digital works of sufficient originality are automatically protected as soon as they are fixed in a tangible medium, giving the creator the exclusive right to copy, alter, distribute, or perform/display the work, or authorize others to do so, for a limited time.

Intellectual property refers to ideas, which have no physical form.

In general, a patent can be maintained for 20 years from the date of its first priority filing. In some pharmaceutical cases delayed by the FDA, the date can be extended somewhat.

However, a patent filed in the USA prior to June 1995 may lapse 17 years after date of ISSUE (not filing) or 20 years after date of filing, whichever is later.

Patents may also lapse because of non-payment of required maintenance fees, which vary by country.

Furthermore, a patent may be ruled completely or partially invalid for any number of reasons, making its protection questionable from that date on.

Finally, if a patent is never issued (for one reason or another) or is never filed, or is filed improperly, then it does not protect the invention at all.

On a related note: plant patents and design patents (and the like) are generally limited to much shorter periods of protection.
