I'm dealing with a situation and need some guidance.

trade dress for product packaging. I've been dealing with this for about 6 months now and the situation isn't improving.

I have already tried to resolve this directly but did not get a clear answer.

Has anyone been through something similar? What worked for you?

I went through almost the exact same thing.

What worked for me was hiring an attorney to send the initial letter. It took 2-4 months but was worth it.

I went through almost the exact same thing.

In my case, it took about 4-8 months to resolve. The key was filing with the appropriate government agency.

Not a lawyer, but I have direct experience with this.

Don't make the same mistake I did -- is having everything documented. I'd recommend keeping a detailed timeline instead.
