If you’re designing logos, you meed to be aware that we live in a world where business names and logos are registered, owned and legally protected by individuals and businesses.

Ignoring trademark law could mean you end up unintentionally designing a logo that breaches an already established trademark, and your client could get in some serious legal trouble. So the more you about the topic, the better.

To learn how to register a business name and logo, Ian interviews Marcella Dominguez, a trademark attorney from El Paso, Texas.
