I’m looking for an experienced intellectual property or trademark attorney for a short consultation regarding a book I plan to publish on Amazon KDP.
This is a very small project. I expect the review to take 15–30 minutes for someone familiar with U.S. trademark and copyright law.
What I need:
I’m creating a puzzle-style “story + word search” book inspired by the real-life 1926 disappearance of Agatha Christie. I am not using her full name in the book’s title or subtitle, but I will mention her factually in the story and back-cover blurb.
Before I finalize anything, I want a quick professional opinion to ensure my:
Book Title
Subtitle
(Optional) Short disclaimer page
do not violate trademark rules, imply endorsement by the Christie Estate, or conflict with KDP content policies.
Scope of Work:
Review my proposed title and subtitle
Confirm whether the phrasing is legally safe
Suggest minor wording adjustments if needed
(Optional) skim a 1–2 sentence disclaimer
No manuscript review is required.
No long-form writing is required.
Ideal Qualifications:
U.S. trademark experience
Copyright or publishing background
Familiarity with KDP content guidelines (helpful but not required)
Ability to give clear, simple guidance
Deliverables:
A brief written opinion confirming safety of the title/subtitle, along with any recommended tweaks.
Budget:
Flexible. I’m happy to pay a fair consultation fee for 15–30 minutes of your time.
If this sounds like something you can assist with, I’d love to hear from you!
