Looking for advice on a legal issue. Here's what happened.

can I sell AI-generated images commercially. I've been dealing with this for about 15 months now and the situation isn't improving.

This involves original creative work over the past 30 months. I do have documentation proving my ownership and timeline.

Am I overthinking this or is this a real legal issue worth pursuing?

Just want to point out — the statute of limitations might be a factor here. In some states it's as short as 1-2 years. Don't sit on this too long.

Attorney here. Here's my take on the legal issues.

Based on what you've described, you likely have a viable claim under the Lanham Act. The standard is whether a reasonable person would find the conduct likely to cause confusion.

You should consult with a local attorney who handles these cases. Many offer free initial consultations.

I work in this industry and unfortunately this is very common. The good news is that when people actually push back with legal representation, companies usually settle.

Been there. Here's what I learned.

What worked for me was having everything documented. It took 3-6 months but was worth it.
