<p class="MsoNormal">I\u2019ve become aware of a single named U.S. lawyer on multitudes of recently filed U.S. trademark applications for Chinese nationals and companies with over 950 applications filed since July and counting. While I have not looked closely at
all of them, the ones I\u2019ve reviewed claim use and include a specimen showing the mark on a single type of good though the identification of goods are typically far reaching and include normally unrelated goods. In tracking down the attorney, I anticipated
they might not be aware their identity was being used on these filings, but I was able to reach a real person claiming to be the named attorney by phone and email. As you might anticipate from my wording, I\u2019m not wholly convinced the person I\u2019ve reached is
actually the named attorney. I should also mention that this person\u2019s name does not appear on a single trademark filing at the USPTO prior to July though the person was admitted to practice back in 1998. I can\u2019t find anything about the nature of this lawyer\u2019s
practice or work history online.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Since the named attorney is signing these applications attesting to the questionable far-ranging use on such a large number of filings, I believe they may be committing fraud. I\u2019m thinking of reporting the activity to the attorney\u2019s state
bar, but I\u2019d love to get opinions on what exactly my role ought to be here and whether I also should be reporting anything to the USPTO.<o:p></o:p></p>
