A. Trade Mark.

The best IPR that James could go for is a Trade Mark. Although copyright and trade mark may seem to have the same concept, the copyright actually covers forms of dramatic, literacy, musical, artistic, and certain other intellectual works.

The trade mark on the other hand covers forms of words, names, symbols sounds or colors that make their goods unique, or services that make them different from other companies.
