What is the name of your state?
I live in Illinois.
Hi , I have I think a trademark, patent or copyright statement and question.
I created a seminar for educational purposes and for profit. In researching any other people who had similar seminars I came across a company. This company is already in business and using one aspect of what I have included in my seminar. It's a method on how to teach a subject in a certain way. I have been using this system in private tutoring. There have been books and articles published on this system. My method and his method are similar in how he and I are applying it to certain educational subjects like history or english. He even mentions these books. He states on his web site that anyone who duplicates or reproduces his product in any form known or unknown and expressly stated is unathorized. I only have viewed his web site and have never purchased or seen any of his products or seminars. His seminar includes many other things and so does mine, but this one aspect seems to be alike. I would like to move forward with my seminars and home study courses as we are not in business yet. Could he assert any legal action for copyright, patent, or trademark issues against my company??
Thank you for your time with this question.
