Hi There,
Newbie here over the pond looking for some advice. We own a chain of restaurants in the USA - we have a fairly generic name but we are a known brand. We intend to open and have publicly been seen in the media to say so in the UK however some keen bean has trademarked our brand name without us seeing this and it has been approved.
Given they have never traded in the UK yet neither have we do we have any grounds to dispute the mark etc? Keen for some top level advise if we can do anything (aside from change our name).
Thanks,
Tyler
