(il) Restaurant With The Same Name As Ours Recently Trademarked The Name And Is Threatening To Pursue Legal Action.
We have been using the name for about 20 years and we even knew the previously owner who actually asked us if he could use the name. We are in two different villages in Illinois
New owner is saying that there are multiple orders that were placed mistakenly thinking that they were our restaurant. So they have recently trademarked the name and is threatening to pursue legal action if we do not merge websites with them.
Will this hold up? We have had the business name registered since 20 years ago and have been using it long before their trademark.
