Legal Question in Intellectual Property in Nevada
Printing logos on promotional items
I'm starting a promotional products company (pens, mugs, t-shirts, etc). Some things I can print myself, others I have to have the manufacturer imprint the item. If someone wants me to print a company logo on something, what are my responsibilities? It will usually be an employee or franchisee that is ordering items.

Re: Printing logos on promotional items
Typically, you will need to protect all intellectual property rights (trademark, copyright and patent). You will need to license out those IP rights to your franchisee(s). Have you obtained a state or federal trademark registration?
