Statue of justice - Trademarks are protected by law
  • ℠ SM symbol stands for service mark, a mark used to promote or brand services, typically unregistered.
  • ™ TM symbol stands for unregistered trademark, that is, a mark used to promote or brand goods;
  • ® R circled symbol stands for registered trademark. The owner of a registered trademark may commence legal proceedings for trademark infringement to prevent unauthorized use of that trademark. However, registration is not required. The owner of a common law "TM" trademark may also file suit, but an unregistered mark may be protectable only within the geographical area within which it has been used or in geographical areas into which it may be reasonably expected to expand.
  • ㋏ ltd symbol stands for limited liability company. I know you don't need it, but I've put it here anyway.
