Subject: Cease and Desist Notice for Copyright Infringement
Dear ABCD Corporation,
I am writing on behalf of [Your Client's Name], the rightful owner of [describe intellectual property, e.g., website content, graphics, and overall design], regarding the unauthorized use of this intellectual property by ABCD Corporation.
It has come to our attention that ABCD Corporation has engaged in and continues to engage in activities that infringe upon our clientâs intellectual property rights. Specifically, ABCD Corporation has created and maintained a website whose content and design are identical to our clientâs. This behavior represents a clear violation of our client's copyright, as protected under Title 17 of the United States Code.
Evidence of the infringement includes, but is not limited to:
Identical text found on both ABCD Corporationâs and our clientâs websites, including specific phrases and proprietary terminology developed by our client.
Use of the same unique website layout and design features, which are distinctive to our clientâs brand.
Duplication of interactive features and graphical elements that were initially designed and implemented by our client.
As a result of these actions, we formally demand that ABCD Corporation immediately cease and desist from using any and all copied content, design elements, and features that are copyrighted by our client. We require compliance with this cease and desist order no later than [insert specific deadline, e.g., 14 days from the date of this letter], by which time the infringed content must be removed and further use desisted.
If ABCD Corporation fails to comply with these demands within the given timeframe, our client is prepared to take legal action to enforce their rights, which may include seeking monetary damages and injunctive relief. Legal action may result in considerable legal expenses, court fees, and potential damage to your corporationâs reputation.
Please understand that this letter serves as a formal legal notice and is issued without prejudice to our clientâs rights and remedies, all of which are expressly reserved.
We expect that ABCD Corporation will give this matter the immediate attention it requires. Please confirm in writing by [insert specific deadline] that you have complied with these demands. Should you have any questions or wish to discuss this matter further, do not hesitate to contact me directly.
Thank you for your attention to this matter.
Sincerely,
