Can my logo design be trademarked? Absolutely! When you have had a logo designed by Infiniti Mixed Media, you will own an original and custom designed piece of artwork that we have gauged is unique enough to be established as a trademark for your business, product or service. There are different levels of trademark and protection, and straight away, just by paying for the design you have copyright over it. Copyright in Ireland is supported by the Copyright and Related Rights Act, 2000 and allows 50-70 years after the authors death before it expires... You can claim that your logo or brand is your trademark by simply applying the symbol alongside it, and is a public declaration that you wish this to be recognised a such. It is not bulletproof, and depending on the level of protection you require you may want to consider registration. Registering your trademark means that you can use the symbol ® and affords you a statutory right and support from the registration office.
