A: To determine if "Long Island Honey Company" is trademarked, you would need to search the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) database. This can be done through the Trademark Status and Document Retrieval (TSDR) system available on the USPTO website. You can search by the name of the company or the trademark to find out if it is registered or has a pending application.

A: If you are interested in this name for your company you should contact a Firm specializing in trademarks and Intellectual Property. Whether or not "Long Island Honey Company" is registered is not the end of the inquiry.

A Registered Patent Attorney or specialized trademark attorney will also determine if there are unregistered users of the trademark or if there are trademarks being used that could be considered confusingly similar. Both of these conditions could prevent you from using or registering "Long Island Honey Company" as a trademark.
