This week is the SEASON FINALE of Legal Leverage season 1!

 And we’re ending it with a bang, with one of our absolute favourite topics – trademarking. 

Trademarking is the ultimate top trump in terms of protecting brands.

 What do we mean by that? Well, trademarking trumps pretty much any other ‘name’ protection out there (aka buying the domain, operating for a long time and registering that name).

 In this episode we cover:

• What is trademarking?
• Why do you need it?
• What are the benefits?
• Can you register your own trademark?
• Where can you trademark?

We also dive into some high profile trademark battles. Is Mariah Carey a bit of a diva or has she got her trademark sorted? Listen to find out more..

 We also hint at something very exciting we have coming up. Stay tuned!

• What is IR35, how does it affect me and what do I need to do?
• What is the best way to get clients to pay me on time?
• What does GDPR mean for Brexit?
• How important are privacy policies and what do they cover?
• Do freelancers need to register a trademark?

And the best part? It’s all made simple!

Today we have a special episode for you all!

I meet and talk with Lauren O'Sullivan - Creator & Host of the Legally Different Podcast.

She interviews lawyers who are different, lawyers who chose to live their life differently, those who make life decisions to live and work in a way that aligns with their passions and values.

Lauren and I talk about why I consider myself to be ''Legally Different'', why and how I have approached the legal market in a different way than most do, and why I chose to create a completely different type of law firm that exists to genuinely help people grow and scale their business.

This weeks episode is all about you, E-commerce businesses out there. 

Product selling businesses (just like any other business, of course) need the legal stuff in place in order to grow and scale in the safest way possible.

So, what exactly does this episode cover that you *might* need to add to your (legal) basket?

• The key legal elements you need to focus on
• Data protection and 3rd party sites like Etsy, Amazon and eBay
• People pinching your designs and copyright
• Trademarking – yay or nay?
• Working with suppliers and manufacturers
• Refund policies (especially for Christmas coming up!)
• Consumer protection

Get your notepads out for this one folks!
