Trade mark necessary ??

[Arko.]

If starting a supplement company do you need to trademark its name to prevent others from using it? Or is there another way?
Anyone else been through the process?
Thanks

Your first step is to goto the uspto database and make sure no one else is using the mark.
If not then it's worth hiring an attorney who specializes in trademark ie.IP law.
Not some general practitioner who wrote your will but a specialist.
