THE CITY SAYS
ALBUQUERQUE )S ARTISTS
AND CREATIVE COMMUNITY
ARE BIG CONTRIBUTORS TO
THE LOCAL ECONOMY -- AND
THEY WANT TO MAKE SURE
THEY )RE ON THE RIGHT
TRACK TO SUCCESS.
Albuquerque has a really
strong creative economy
and lots of artists,
lots of creative
thinkers exist in
Albuquerque.
LAWYERS WITH THE STATE
BAR OF NEW MEXICO ARE
PARTNERING WITH
THE CITY,
GIVING FREE ADVICE FOR
INVENTORS, ARTISTS, AND
OTHER CREATIVE
ENTREPRENEURS.
THEY )RE COVERING
EVERYTHING FROM MAKING A
PATENT FOR YOUR
INVENTION, TO PROTECTING
YOUR BRAND AND
TRADEMARK,
PREVENTING YOUR CREATIVE
WORK OR IDEAS FROM BEING
COPIED OR TAKEN,
AND EVEN SELLING YOUR
ART AND STARTING A
BUSINESS.
THE CITY SAYS THIS TYPE
OF LEGAL HELP CAN BE
EXPENSIVE, SO IT )S A
GOOD
OPPORTUNITY TO GET THE
ADVICE WHILE YOU CAN.
Often times, there are
lots of intellectual
property lawyers and you
have to pay the fees and
all that, but this is an
exception where lawyers
are coming together to
provide that service for
free.
THE SMALL BUSINESS
OFFICE AND STATE BAR
WILL HOLD A DAY OF THE
FREE LEGAL ADVICE THIS
SATURDAY FROM 10 TO 2 AT
THE UNM SCHOOL OF
LAW.
DAVID, BACK TO YOU.
THANKS, JAMI.

OUR WEBSITE -- JUST LOOK
UNDER THE ALWAYS ON TAB.
