In terms of cost/benefit, a cease & desist letter is your first best bet. They may not be aware of the problem. Making it appear that you're serious (name of a law firm, trademark no., what exactly they're doing wrong spelled out, snail mail a copy) will improve your odds.
In terms of what you have to stand on, your attorney will tell you. Put that C&D letter out and maybe you won't need to involve an attorney.
- akmiller 14y agoThat sounds like good advice. I'm certain they are aware of the problem. I had emailed the guy who owns the domain before any content was put up and I told him what our website was and what it did and he told me that he knew the teamsnap guys and that they run a similar site (although he refused to sell the domain). So he had explicit knowledge and I have emails that indicate that.
