DIY Copyright & Trademark

/

Have you protected your brand? 

Copyright & Trademark registration is a super valuable protection for your business.  Without registration, copyright & trademark protections are super limited under common law. WITH registration, you can stop others from use, license out use of your mark, and other great benefits.

Registration is a standard cost-of-doing-business and is one that is truly worth committing to. 

You should protect your work & brand as though it is your livelihood…cause guess what? It is the very source indicator of your livelihood.

-Why choose TheLawTog?

Headed by Rachel Brenke, TheLawTog is the only dedicated resource for photographers.  With practicing lawyers, business consultants, CPA, financial planners (and more!) you’ll get information with first-hand experience to help your photography business. 

-Can I edit the contracts?

Yes! They come as .doc files so you can fill-in-the-blank, remove or add what you need. We provide options and headings to easily allow for editing.

-Can I use these contracts if not in the US?

TheLawTog®’s contract forms are drafted on general American law-based contract principles and are applicable to many states.  Due to variations in law based on location and business policies, the contracts are editable and easily adaptable. If you are a photographer outside the US, the policies may be implemented for your business, but U.S. Federal Copyright laws and other legal theories may not apply.  For example, in the United States, unless otherwise contracted, the photographer retains copyright ownership of images. However, in other countries, the law may give the copyright ownership to the client and necessitate a provision for transfer.
