What steps can I take to protect my trademarked business name from use in Canada? I currently have my business name trademarked in the US. I recently discovered that a woman in Canada has decided to use my business name but changing the spacing. For example, my business name is [REDACTED]. She uses [REDACTED]. Would it be worth: 1. Sending a notification letter asking her to consider changing her business name. She just opened in [REDACTED]. This would give her some time to add "Spa" to it or change it completely before having to go any further. 2. Pursue an International Trademark (which could take time) and then send her notice. I have had this business name for 15 years and therefore would like to protect the integrity and reputation of my business. Your guidance is appreciated.

Contracts Counsel was incredibly helpful and easy to use. I submitted a project for a lawyer's help within a day I had received over 6 proposals from qualified lawyers. I submitted a bid that works best for my business and we went forward with the project.

I never knew how difficult it was to obtain representation or a lawyer, and ContractsCounsel was EXACTLY the type of service I was hoping for when I was in a pinch. Working with their service was efficient, effective and made me feel in control. Thank you so much and should I ever need attorney services down the road, I'll certainly be a repeat customer.

I got 5 bids within 24h of posting my project. I choose the person who provided the most detailed and relevant intro letter, highlighting their experience relevant to my project. I am very satisfied with the outcome and quality of the two agreements that were produced, they actually far exceed my expectations.
