I bought a domain with a very good name that’s used by several companies. I got it for a low price, and the name seems strong because I found multiple companies on Google using the same name.
How can I know if the domain has no trademark issues?

I think this is the official for us: https tmsearch.uspto.gov/search/search-information

Worth knowing that is a trademark is registered but you can prove you were using the name before(the name was established prior to trademark registration) then the trademark can not be used against you. You even have a period of time when you can challenge a trademark.

Good move checking, hamadyesorno

Next step is comparing active trademarks by class and jurisdiction, not just name.
