	WVSOS - Business Organizations - Trade Name Registration
		An out-of-state company which must use a DBA name to register in West Virginia because its original name is not available is not required to separately register the DBA as a trade name, but the DBA is still considered a trade name under the law.
		To protect a trade name that is in actual use, a service mark or trade mark application should be considered.
		Individuals, sole proprietorships, general partnerships and unincorporated non-profit associations register trade names by filing a certification of trade name with the County Clerk of the county where the principal office is located, or for out-of-state companies, the county in which most of the business is conducted.
