7SPICES®, a Mediterranean restaurant in the heart of Miami Beach, opened its doors in 2018. The passion of a young married couple, whose dream was deeply anchored in the rich culinary traditions of the Eastern Mediterranean, inspired its creation. Their shared devotion to this heritage sparked a vision unique in its scope – to meld the authentic flavors and warmth of Mediterranean culture with a contemporary flair.
Recently, they faced an unexpected challenge: confused customers began calling to complain about a food truck, mistakenly believing it was operated by 7SPICES®.
The Challenge
Despite their success, 7SPICES® encountered a trademark infringement issue. Confused customers began complaining about a food truck, erroneously believing it was operated by 7SPICES®. This not only damaged their reputation but also negatively impacted their business due to the generated confusion.
The Solution
Portalatin Law Firm provided comprehensive consulting to protect 7SPICES®’s registered trademark. Our team prepared and sent a cease and desist letter to the infringing party, demonstrating that 7SPICES® had a valid registered trademark and warning of the legal consequences, including potential liability for attorney’s fees if the case went to court.
Implementation
From the outset, our team worked closely with 7SPICES® to fully understand the problem. We coordinated multiple meetings to gather all necessary documentation and provided strategic legal advice. The cease and desist letter was quickly drafted and sent, clearly asserting 7SPICES®’s trademark rights.
