Would you allow someone to use your legal trademark in their business?

Guessing your gut answer is a \"no.\" The same applies for popular brands.

If you want to use another business\'s legal property in your name, do this:

1. Type \"company name trademark use\" into Google

Some companies will have information posted publicly about how others may use their legal property in business that is not theirs.

2. If you can\'t find public information on using the company\'s legal property, then contact them and ask.

If you don\'t do either of these steps, then know that every amount of time and money you spend building your business, product, or service can be wiped out and even sued.
