Dear Jared:

When you hire the artist, be sure to have an agreement in WRITING that the artwork (logo) is your exclusive property. This can be done either as "work for hire" (that is the artist works on your behalf) or as an assignment (sale of the artwork and copyrights associated therewith).

If it is the sole artist's responsibility to conceive and design the logo, it would also be prudent to have the artist INDEMNIFY you against any claims made by third parties (should anyone claim that your new logo itself is a knock-off).

Our attorneys regularly draft and negiotiate copyright and trademark licenses, assignments and work for hire agreements as well as other forms of protecting and transfers of intellectual property rights.

Morever, with BASIC online application and registration of copyrights, trademarks and domain names: WE PROTECT IMAGINATION.

Best Regards,

Stephen Anderson
