Default Trademark Infringement by Able Home Inspections

Able Home Inspections is using a tag line (or one that is "confusingly similar") that is a registered Trademark of mine.


http://www.ableinspector.com/ 239-354-3540


Use of another's trademark (or one that is confusingly similar) is infringement and the basis for a lawsuit for damages for unfair competition and/or a petition for an injunction against the use of the infringing trademark.


infringement n. 1) a trespassing or illegal entering. 2) in the law of patents (protected inventions), and copyrights (protected writings or graphics), the improper use of a patent, writing, graphic or trademark without permission, without notice, and especially without contracting for payment of a royalty. Even though the infringement may be accidental (an inventor thinks he is the first to develop the widget although someone else has a patent), the party infringing is responsible to pay the original patent or copyright owner substantial damages, which can be the normal royalty or as much as the infringers' accumulated gross profits.

ABLE HOME INSPECTIONS stealing a tag line?

How can you trust them to do anything right, or trust them in your home, if they have to steal someone else's work to puff up their own credentials.

SHAME ON ABLE HOME INSPECTIONS FOR BEING SUCH LOWLIFES.

Default Re: Trademark Infringement by Able Home Inspections

When a consumer is hiring an inspector to assist them in making such a huge financial investment ... they must be able to trust in his judgment as well as his personal integrity. Both of these are essential for one to be able to provide a complete, accurate and unbiased description of a home in a home inspection report.

The inspector doing business as Able Home Inspections is apparently deficient in both of these critical areas and prudent consumers will not risk their safety or their financial stability by hiring him to do a home inspection for him.

From his website:
"Florida Home Inspector licensing is regarded as one of the nations weekest license laws.. "

...gives you a good idea of his level of intelligence.
