Three things to check in New Jersey

  1. 1

    Search the main words first

    Start with “Riverstone Design” instead of “Riverstone Design LLC.” Leaving off “LLC” can help you find more similar names.

  2. 2

    Review close spellings and sound-alikes

    Punctuation, plurals, business endings, and small spelling changes may still be treated as the same name or too similar by the state.

  3. 3

    Check trademarks, then let the state decide

    Search federal trademarks separately. Only the state can approve a reservation or filing, and availability can change.
