: I have read some of the entries. I just want to know if I'm on the right track. I want to search to see if the band name I have is used already. How do I do that? (Trademark)-That's $30 right? Once I obtain that certificate, then I can copyright the album, the music and lyrics by filling out a copyright form and sending it to the register of copyrights. Then I send a copy of the album to the Library of Congress. Right? Is that also $30?
: I also have other poetry and lyrics in which I can send for those to be copyrighted as well for $30 to the register of copyrights. Where can I get a filing form, is there a web site or a number, do I search under the name of The Register of Copyrights?
: Thanks for your time
: you're providing a great service

Dear Dave,
We Intellectual Property Lawyers would not be in business if it was as simple as you seem to make it.
The Official Government Filing Fee for a trademark application in one class it $335. That doesn't include a lawyers fees nor searching.
I like to save money too and I don't trust Doctors, but I have been able to find doctors that are terrific and trustworthy and helpful.
