- What due diligence should be undertaken - even if a client has declined to authorize any trademark searches - before filing a new trademark application or sending a cease and desist letter;
- What happens if you find a blocking registration when a client did not authorize a search; and
- Other thorny issues that may arise in trademark investigations.
