Defending Your Brand: Addressing Trademark Infringement Issues

In today’s fast-paced business world, your brand is a key asset. Trademarks protect your unique identity—your name, logo, and other distinctive elements that differentiate you in the marketplace. But what if another party starts using a mark that closely resembles yours? That’s where we step in. At Kerrick Bachert, PSC, our experienced attorneys, Laura Hagan and Lucas Wetton, provide dedicated legal support to resolve trademark infringement matters.

What is Trademark Infringement?

Trademark infringement occurs when a third party uses a mark that is identical or substantially similar to your registered or common law trademark, leading to potential consumer confusion. This can weaken your brand’s distinctiveness, mislead customers, and impact your business’s reputation.

How We Help Protect Your Brand

We offer strategic legal services to help businesses address trademark infringement. Our approach includes:

1. Analysis and Investigation: We assess your trademark rights, whether based on registration or established use, and conduct a thorough review of the alleged infringement.
2. Cease and Desist Letters: A well-crafted cease-and-desist letter can often resolve disputes swiftly and efficiently. We tailor these letters to outline your rights and request immediate corrective action.
3. Negotiation and Resolution: If the other party is willing to cooperate, we negotiate solutions such as discontinuation of use, domain name transfers, or coexistence agreements that protect your interests.
4. Litigation When Necessary: If an amicable resolution is not possible, we are prepared to take legal action. Our attorneys have significant experience in trademark disputes in federal courts and before the Trademark Trial and Appeal Board (TTAB).
