As a medical or dental professional, owner of a clinic, hospital, or any other service provider in this field, do you understand the importance of having a trademark registered with the Mexican Institute of Industrial Property (IMPI) and the problems you may face if you don’t have one?

The registration of a trademark with the IMPI, first of all, serves to protect the name, logo, slogan, smells, colors and even the sound of a product or service, and to ensure that it becomes the exclusive property of the person who holds the title to its registration with the institute, so that it is not used by another company or person, who at a given time would like to take undue advantage, without right to do so, of the recognition that said trademark may have in the market and society.

Anyone who provides a service or sells a product using a trademark they consider their own simply by using or inventing it, and who does not properly register it, may face various legal problems.

However, anyone with a registered trademark can pursue legal remedies against anyone using it without their authorization, including civil, commercial, property, and even federal criminal litigation. Hence the importance of protecting yourself when registering your trademark and respecting the registration of other people’s trademarks.

Don’t wait until it’s too late, register your trademark and protect your assets.
