Your rights in a trademark continue as long as you use the mark. Federal registrations are valid for ten years, but they may be renewed over and over, so long as you are still using the mark in interstate commerce. The oldest continuously registered mark dates back to the 1870's.
If two companies use the same logo, a legal dispute over trademark ownership arises. If no one registers the trademark, the first company to use the logo as a trademark qualifies as the legal owner. If the logo is registered as a federal trademark, the courts recognize the registered owner as the legitimate owner.
