    Default Could this become a legal issue?

    I have a Limited Liability Company listed under Nemesis Digital.

    However, one of my contacts says there is another Nemesis Digital in California. I had no idea until just recently.

    Out of curiosity, could I have some legal issues coming up unless I change my name?

    You could just change it to Nemesis Digital Photograhy


    Although I really dont see them worrying about a company out in GA with the same name!

    That's the thing though... . Im not wanting to limit myself to just Photography, since I manage my own site and work on site design. Also, in the future if I find a partner, I might start with videography as well.

    I thought the location would be helpful, but Im planning to cover Irwindale Formula D. So I might have some coverage spread out to some other "local Cali" sites where itll get noticed...

    Well there can be issues...but I honestly doubt a company in Cali will come after you....they will invesigate, probably rule it as a waste of time...I mean Nissan right now is sueing a family for having the domian name www.nissan.com

    But in all honesty I doubt you have anything to worry about....

    You can have a company with the same name. The LOGO (if trademarked) is the issue. If your logo is knockoff of theirs, or is a direct attempt to confuse customers into thinking that you are affiliated w/ them (like the fake Starbux company shit that went down) then you can be sued. Other than that I would not worry about it.
