In a recent ruling between LEGALTECH ApS and LegalTech Denmark ApS, the Danish Maritime and Commercial Court has clarified some aspects of the use of legal tech as a trade name and a trademark. Based on this decision, Danish companies can no longer register legaltech as the trade name for their company, yet at the same time legaltech can still be used freely for marketing and promotion activities. This blog post discusses the facts of the case, the outcome, and looks forward to what the future will hold. Before digging deeper into the actual case, we start with a short recap of the difference in protection between trade names and trademarks.
