Baird Law Offices LLCLogo Design Contest

Small Ohio lawfirm that represents businesses in regulatory matters, litigation, negotiation, etc..

Like: blue, green, gray, but see

The logo must be easy to read, and leave a viewer feeling confident and the impression that the firm is distinguished. The logo can be just the name of the firm, it may/may not have a symbol, and could even appear as a stamp (like those round address stamps (foil or impressed)). The logo must be able to be printed or published anywhere (must look good on 8 ½ x 11, envelopes, website, etc…).

Colors: It is important that the logo look good printed in black & white, but preferable colors (choose one or two max.): blue, green, silver, gray, black. Certainly, I’m not opposed to looking at different colors, but I will probably gravitate to deeper, richer colors.

Not the “cookie cutter” balance, gavel or lady of justice. I’m not completely opposed to the use of any of these, I just don’t want to see a cut and paste of the basic symbols that can be found all over the net.

Go here to see an example I like https://www.aslegal.com/logos.asp?ID=stationery&Fam=01&mnid=2. I like Style #SL4—note many of the other examples on this page are way too busy (strongly dislike the first example on that page).

Go here to see some examples https://www.aslegal.com/Brand/Printing/Gallery.asp# : for both Muller Law Group and J.H. Cohn, I do not like the symbol—just too cookie-cutter, would probably like w/o the symbol; Climaco—don’t like the symbol—too busy. The rest of these examples are nice.

TYPESETTING: Go here to see typesetting I like and dislike: https://www.aslegal.com/wording.asp?mnid=1&eventType=NEW%20FIRM#sample . The first is o.k, the middle is way to difficult to read, and the last one is my favorite on this page.
