Dear Heather L,
I trust this urgent message reaches you well.
This is a final notice regarding the potential trademark infringement of your business name, “Property Management Personnel, Inc” Time is of the essence, as it has been over 24 hours since the applicant signed up for trademark registration. We must act swiftly to secure your brand name and prevent any further encroachment on your intellectual property rights.
Immediate action is imperative. If you’re ready to proceed, we’re prepared to swiftly forward your application and decline our applicant’s registration on your behalf. Your prompt response is crucial to avoid any delays that may jeopardize your ownership of your brand name.
Once the classes are paid with the USPTO for the applicant, our ability to file the application for you will be restricted. Violating a trademark can result in penalties such as injunctions or cease-and-desist orders, with potential lawsuits costing between $120,000 to $750,000, depending on the case’s complexity.
Your immediate attention to this matter is essential.
Please contact me at (213) 695-2348 (EXT 20) to discuss further steps or if you have any questions.
Thank you for your understanding and cooperation.
Warm regards,
