 IPC recently recently helped its client, Vibrant Market, obtain federal trademark registration for its mark VIBRANT MARKET (U.S. Trademark Registration No. 6,110,474).
The Vibrant Market is a retail beauty and wellness shop in New Orleans whose trademark application faced a significant hurdle in the form of an existing federal registration for a similar mark. IPC attorneys Ian Barras and Adriano Pacifici were able to overcome this obstacle by taking steps to cancel the prior registration, thus clearing the way for The Vibrant Market to obtain its new registration.
