Assignments/Change of Ownership

Points to Consider:
- Even simple name changes must be recorded with the USPTO
- The transfer of a trademark must include the underlying goodwill or the date of first use will not apply to the new owner.
- The transfer of a trademark should also include the right to sue for past infringements.
