Is interesting that Kaglew Management LLC, which is the company trying to acquire the trademark, is run by Charles Lew, the attorney who is representing the claim. KAGLEW was created by Charles Lew and Alex Kagianaris, partners in the boutique law firm, Kagianaris Lew LLP. They are recognized as a highly motivated and committed, demonstrating extensive experience in restaurant development and management. They are currently involved in several restaurants, bars/lounges, and development projects in the Los Angeles area; all of which showcase their expertise with prominent success rates and notable recognition. Today, in this tough economy, KAGLEW is proud to identify and present hospitality and restaurant ventures as commercial opportunities for themselves and their investors. KAGLEW structures deals for maximum returns and is an invaluable resource for creating and building wealth in commercial properties. Some exciting projects KAGLEW has recently developed are the organic vodka from Hawaii, Ocean Vodka, the highly publicized Crown Bar in West Hollywood and the popular Gasser LOUNGE in Redondo Beach. STOUT, the latest venture from KAGLEW, is bringing together two of the fastest growing commodities in the restaurant industry – gourmet burgers and craft beer. KAGLEW is positioning STOUT as a high volume high return asset and has plans to open multiple locations in Southern California and beyond. I guess they are not doing as well as they hoped in restaurants and craft beers then.

He was involved with Crown Bar and Winston's, two "trendy" expensive LA bars that were popular many years ago. From his website (KAGLEW.COM), about trademarks- http://ale811.wix.com/restaurantgroupla#!Trademark-Considerations/ctpl/E59E7B34-9E9D-45CE-91FA-606C9421ABBC http://ale811.wix.com/restaurantgroupla#!Trademark-Considera... "The name must not be descriptive" "Stay out of the dictionary. If your prospective mark can be found in a dictionary, it has meaning and will be a poor candidate for a trademark." That's cut and pasted from a document on http://patentax.com/ http://patentax.com/ which also advocates bar owners patenting designs of chairs, shelves and dinnerware.

"Is interesting that..." If a lawyer owns a company that needs legal work, is it so odd that the lawyer does the work? Seems no more odd than an owner that's also a programmer writing software for his business.

  What I found interesting was not that it was a lawyer doing their own work, but that the company was a restaurant and beer spinoff from a legal practice, that so far appears to have had very little to do with clothing. If it was a clothing company that was trying to trademark the use of bitcoin for a line of clothing, that would be one thing, but this seems far more speculative an endeavor.

    Seems like a money laundering op from the blurb. Any criminal record?
