@BNBusinessProtection & @thelegalstop Just wanted to say thank you for your replies. Another member got in touch via PM and I am chatting with them.
Thanks again.
Hi Folks,
Looking for some advice with the probability of acquiring the services of an IP solicitor to argue an EU trademark which is currently still in examination period.
I don't think it's a particularly technical case, but I'm not sure if I'll have grounds. My argument is simply that the...
Hi Folks,
I've read around how Brexit will likely impact on trademark holders, specifically businesses who hold EU CTMs. Apparently as of March 2019, unless new treaties and laws are drafted, all EU CTMs will cease to cover the UK.
The general consensus I seem to be be reading is that lawyers...
Called them up and they were perfectly accommodating on the cancellation. I hold my hand up, I'm the ****.
I was just a bit spooked by the 5 calls a day + emails and the fact I was continually made aware that calls were recorded.
I actually feel bad now... The reason for the cancellation was...
Thanks for your reply... I was rather relying on the law firm rather than Google per se as the expert... I did read that bit you're referring too, but I took it like the owner has promised to pay so if / when he / she does you (the seller) is obligated to fulfill...

If I've agreed to buy something on the phone (the conversation was presumably recorded) and via email, am I legally bound to fulfill on that order?
1. We agreed a price for the service (marketing).
2. I said I would...
Thank you for the reply.
In one respect I am fortunate that it's not something I need to act up on now, I can wait.
In my case it centres around the use of a domain name which I registered coincidentally at the same time a mid sized corporate took out a TM on the word. As I said, the UK TM was...
I personally don't think it's in Britain's long term interests to exit, but I'm not convinced it's not going to happen, especially with what happened this past weekend. That will be a LOT of negotiating and a LOT of convincing in a short space of time. Knowing how quickly Europe moves...
I'd be...
Perhaps an apt time to ask the question :)
If Britain were to exit the EU, would British EU trademark holders NEED to have the a British trademark in order to have their TM upheld within the UK and to stop infringement?
I was speaking to an IP lawyer several years ago who said Europe have been...
