Experiences with trademark infringements
Hi!
Has anyone here had experience in solving trademark infringements (of their trademarks) in the past?
Did you settle or require the party to cease the use? I'm curious as I'm in a position where one of my trademarks is being actively (intended or not) used by a different company in the same class.
Probably have to find legal counsel, but in the meantime curious about others experiences.
Thanks!

Yes, I faced such an issue recently and ultimately got them to sign an agreement to change their name. We agreed on some terms allowing them some time to make the necessary changes to rebrand, etc.
Ideally you solve it amicably like this, as turning it into a courtcase is most likely out of your budget.
There's a lot to be said about this topic, but without knowing the specifics it's hard to give tailored advice. However, here are my 3 main points:
I can introduce you to a TM lawyer. Email me ( [email protected] ) and I'll be happy to set up an intro.
Also happy to provide more advice in private DM on Telegram.
This is really great advice. I'll reach out if I need more.
#2 is indeed the reason why I'm trying to defend it here. But hopefully an amicable solution is the way to go.
