Re: Demand Letter for Intellectual Property Infringement
Dear Ms. Abshire,
I am writing to formally notify you of the unauthorized use and infringement of my intellectual property, specifically the logo and brand design for my company, "Doe Innovations." This intellectual property, which I created and own, is protected under the U.S. Copyright Act and the Lanham Act (Trademark Law). You have infringed upon my rights by reproducing and using my original logo design in your marketing materials, advertisements, and website without permission.
Details of the Infringement
It has come to my attention that ABC Designs, Inc. has been using a design that is identical to the logo registered under my company "Doe Innovations." This logo has appeared on your company website and promotional materials since June 2024, without my authorization. The reproduction and use of this logo are in direct violation of my intellectual property rights.
This unauthorized use has caused harm to my business by confusing customers and diminishing the distinctiveness of my brand. Furthermore, it has likely resulted in financial loss due to customer confusion and damage to my company’s reputation.
I demand that you immediately:
-
Cease all infringing activities related to my logo and brand design.
-
Remove and take down all instances of the logo from your website, advertisements, social media, and any other platform where it is being used.
-
Provide a full account of any profits or revenues derived from the unauthorized use of my logo and brand design.
-
Compensate me for the damages suffered as a result of your infringement. Based on my calculations, the estimated damages amount to $25,000.
-
Provide written confirmation within 14 days of receipt of this letter that you will comply with the above demands.
Legal Consequences
If you fail to comply with the demands outlined in this letter within the stated time frame, I will have no choice but to pursue legal action, including filing a lawsuit for intellectual property infringement. Such action may result in injunctive relief, monetary damages, attorney’s fees, and other remedies available under applicable laws.
I strongly advise you to seek legal counsel regarding this matter to fully understand the gravity of the situation and the consequences of failing to take immediate corrective actions.
Please be aware that this letter serves as a formal demand and is not an exhaustive statement of my rights or remedies. I reserve the right to pursue all available legal and equitable remedies should you not comply with this demand.
Next Steps
To resolve this matter amicably and avoid further legal action, I request that you contact me or my legal representative at your earliest convenience to discuss this issue.
Thank you for your prompt attention to this serious matter.
Sincerely,
[Your Name]
