Q: Which trademark class do I need?
I am starting a youtube channel containing instructional and entertaining videos about homebrewing (beer, wine, etc...). The channel will be owned by my parent llc. I'm looking into trademarking the parent companies name and logo. Which class of trademark do i want to use? Class 33 for alcoholic beverages? Or another class for social media content creation?
A: Arguably, the most crucial pieces of any trademark application are the selection of the appropriate filing classes and the proper description of goods and/or services within those classes. They are also commonly the subject of refusals by the USPTO. I highly recommend consulting a trademark attorney to go over the facts of your specific case. You can work with a trademark attorney licensed in any state, not just the state where you are located.
