Hi All
its been a while since I posted here, but I hope you can help.
My logo is currently under application with the Patents office, a large multinational company are objecting to it, I don't think I am infringing on them in anyway and have reduced the classes I was applying for to ensure that I wasn't infringing on them.
Anyway they currently have an extension to file evidence under rule 20(1) but a throw away comment from a family member is stressing me out. I am operating as a sole trader and he told me I should switch to a limited company asap so they can't sue me. Would they sue me? I am totally stressed thinking our family home is going to go etc. Sorry if I am being Naïve but my business in a small online business run from home, a business which I have yet to take a salary from as I am still building it. There is no way I could afford to go up against this company.
Any advice appreciated!
