Yes, you need a lawyer so that you do it correctly. There are some wrinkles in classifying products for trademark purposes that you wouldn't understand without legal training. I registered a trademark last year or the year before and used Jean Sifleet, an experienced Intellectual Property attorney in Clinton, Mass. Her web site is www.smartfast.com and she is very pleasant and unintimidating to deal with! Marcia Yudkin Goshen
