What's your trademark due dilligence when registering domain/biz?

[FastNAwesome]

Hi everyone,

It's known that registering a domain or company under the name someone else has trademark claims to can be troublesome.

To avoid this, what's your due dilligence before registering a domain, or a company under certain name? What are you experiences with the issue?

Do you:

1) Do your own research (here's one very useful article on how to do that - How to Obtain a Domain Name that Does Not Infringe a Trademark)

2) Hire a trademark attorney to do this for you - and can such act free you from responsibility and outrageous $ claims - as you've demonstrated your commitment to respecting the trademark laws.

3) Something else...?
