Dear Mrs or Mr,
to answer your question more precisely, more details would be required. However I can discuss the details you have provided.
Lets say a word is trademarked in country in which you want to apply for a same word trademark, then it can be a quite problematic and he can rise an objection against your application. However if he will be succesful in such proceedings depends on various other details which I do not have. Trademarked goods and services similarity also plays a huge role in this case.
If you want a more comprehensive and precise answer, contact me with more details. I will gladly advice you on this.
