Cease and Desist Letters
Have you received a trademark cease and desist letter demanding that you stop using a trademark or service mark? Before responding, it is important to understand the allegations, your trademark rights, and the legal options available to you.
A trademark cease and desist letter can be concerning, especially when it threatens your business, brand, or continued use of a name or logo. However, not every trademark infringement claim is necessarily valid. Some letters may overstate the sender’s trademark rights or demand that you stop using a mark you may have the legal right to use.
If you have received a trademark cease and desist letter, do not assume you must immediately stop using your brand. An experienced trademark attorney can review the letter, evaluate the claims, identify potential defenses, and help you determine an appropriate response.

USPTO 2(d) Trademark Refusal Legal Assistance
Has your trademark or service mark application received a USPTO 2(d) refusal? A likelihood of confusion refusal does not necessarily mean your trademark application is over. Understanding the reasons for the refusal can help you determine your options and develop an appropriate response.
The United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) typically issues a 2(d) trademark refusal when an examining attorney determines that your proposed mark is likely to cause confusion with an existing registered trademark. Depending on the circumstances, you may be able to address the concerns or present legal arguments in support of registration.
Roger Doumanian, Attorney at Law, APC can review your USPTO 2(d) refusal, evaluate the similarities between the marks, and identify potential legal arguments. We provide guidance on your available options and can help prepare a response that addresses the examining attorney’s concerns and supports your pursuit of trademark registration.
