Reviving a Dead Trademark (with COVID-19 Update)

Having your federal trademark application approved is reason to celebrate. This is because registration affords you protection at the national level. Also, generally speaking, registered status can last indefinitely.

But, keep in mind that you need to take certain steps to maintain your registration or you could risk the mark falling into “dead” or “abandoned” status. That said, there are instances where you can successfully revive a dead trademark.
