If you are a graphic designer who works with clients to create logo designs or make branding decisions, our work may be relevant if:

 

• You have developed a brand name or logo, and your client wants formal protection for the brand/logo you have developed by filing the appropriate paperwork with the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office;

 

• You or your client would like to conduct a preliminary search to determine if the brand/logo that you would like to develop is available from a legal standpoint, an investigation that can prevent the waste of time, effort, and money before engaging in the graphic design process. 

 

• You have created a design that is of an artistic nature, and you or your client want to prevent others from stealing it by filing the appropriate paperwork with the U.S. Copyright Office; or

 

• You would like to designate ownership rights relating to your graphic designs, and need assistance with the drafting or review of any contractual language relating to ownership rights.

 

We can help with other legal issues you are facing as well.  Please contact us to learn more.
