Definition of "Trademark Assignment"

A Trademark Assignment transfers the entire ownership rights of a trademark from one party to another.

If the trademark is registered federally in the USA, the assignment must be recorded with the Patent and Trademark Office within 3 months of assignment or it is possible that a subsequent purchaser who does not have notice of your assignment could have a claim to the trademark. Similar precautions should be taken for trademarks that are registered in state registries.
