    Is it better to register just words as a trade mark or a logo?

    I am in a similar situation however i want to know; if i apply for the word only and not the logo and its rejected rather than going for text and image logo (i assume the latter would be easier to acquire?) do i then loose the money and have to reapply?

    I need a template for a 'coexistence agreement'

Following a review of the internet, we can’t find a lot of information on the company, as it only started operating in October 2017. Its Facebook page states that it provides branding and design (website...

    Why do you say that? our services are totally different. Also the names are not totally the same, yes i get the point above but it at least has some differentiation in that alone.

    When you say distance, do you mean in terms of the products/service being offered? I did ask the questions, but reworded them, but i also tried to answer them to my limited understanding, you have replied to both very succinctly however, thanks!

    Yes i am in talks with one now, however its not a cheap thing to do and thats whats really upsetting. Its clear i was here first (and likely they used my business name from seeing the social media...) but the damn law is not on my side and that to me isn't cool.

    Yes that is what you do, register, but it doesn't mean you get to have the name! of this other business is trading for years then it takes no difference if you have the trademark at all!
