What this record means
The record shows that the mark “AIP AMERICAN INSURANCE PLUS EMPLOYEE BENEFITS – BECAUSE WE CARE AND SO DO YOU” is live and registered on the Principal Register, owned by American Insurance Plus, LLC, a Florida limited liability company. It covers services in class 036, specifically processing, administering and managing employee benefit plans concerning insurance and insurance brokerage, with first use in May 2016. A similar name that offers or promotes employee benefit insurance services would raise the closest concern, while unrelated goods or services would be farther from the scope shown. The record does not give control over every use of the wording. The prosecution history indicates a straightforward acceptance of Sections 8 and 15 with no descriptiveness refusal, and the latest status event is the July 26 2023 acceptance of those sections. No oppositions, cancellations, or other enforcement actions appear in the supplied history. For someone considering a similar name, the presence of an active Principal Register registration in this specific service area suggests a meaningful risk of conflict.
