Q: Can I use "This is the Way" in quotes for a yard sign promoting a church. Can such words really be protected from use.
We were going to use these words on a yard sign to promote our church but I was informed by a member that these words are in a Disney show and may be protected.

A: "This is the Way" is a trademarked phrase by Disney for their show "The Mandalorian." Using it for commercial purposes without permission could potentially lead to legal issues. It is best to come up with a unique and original phrase for your yard sign to avoid any trademark infringement.
