High Tide Legal

A Black attorney allegedly did what now? 😬 If this is true (and I hope it’s not), it’s a reminder that sometimes the biggest mistakes come from “our own.”

In today’s TENDERNISM NEWS, we’re breaking down a critical trademark lesson: You cannot file a trademark just to “hold it,” beat someone to the punch, or sell it back to them later. That’s not just bad strategy — it’s illegal.

📌 Trademark law requires a bona fide intent to use the mark in commerce. If you don’t have that, your application is VOID.

📌 And just because someone files a trademark doesn’t automatically make them the owner of the brand.

Watch, learn, and please take notes — especially if you’re building a business or advising others.

This is why cheap trademarks aren’t “savings.”

Fake email. No USPTO access. Mark unregistrable.

Real law firms don’t play like that.
