Cease and Desist Letters (Live Reteach)

4-6pm EST

Most of us can file an application, deal with Office Actions, and get the mark to registration.

But what happens when there is an infringer afterward? Or even before? Even if you aren't a litigator, we should all be equipped with the skill set to send and respond to a trademark infringement cease and desist letter. Sometimes you may even need to send one. We've got you covered either way.

This training includes:

• Investigation of the infringement 
• The importance of priority (dates, use, etc.)
• Mechanics of letter-sending – who to send to, where to send, how to send, etc.
• Sending a cease and desist letter: Essential terms and sections
• Responding to a cease and desist: Essential terms and sections
• Tone and word choice (beware of the Streisand Effect)
• Demands: What is fair and reasonable
• What comes next (negotiation, follow-up, etc.)
• Bonus: Responding to template copyright infringement claims

Of course, you knew there would be a workbook too! Included with your purchase is a workbook featuring over 47 example letters (!!) ranging from amicable to aggressive in nature, covering trademarks, copyrights, AND design patents. Wowzas.

PLUS...we've armed you with a huge checklist of issues and considerations for: 1) When you are sending; and 2) when you've received one.
