There are two Richard E. Robinsons licensed in California. The address in the signature mostly matches that of Richard Edwin Robinson #90840, admitted in December 1979. The only difference is that Mr. Robinson's address of record with the California State Bar is PO Box 41725, rather than just the bare numbers 41725. I didn't find any trademark filings by this Richard Robinson searching whatever TEAS is now called.
The "firm" website lists that as an address as well as 500 W. Temple Street, Suite 726, Los Angeles, CA, which appears to be an office inside the Los Angeles County administration building. That seems...dangerous.

Dear Daryllynn,
I'm contacting you on behalf of the Legal Department at The Mark Beacon, a private firm specializing in trademark and copyright services. We've received a request from an applicant in Virginia seeking to register "Newland Real Estate Group " as a trademark-identical to the name you currently use for similar services. Our records show no active federal trademark registration for this name with the USPTO. Under U.S. law, names that aren't federally trademarked are generally considered available for registration by others, regardless of prior use.
If no action is taken to secure your rights, the applicant may move forward with registering the name and potentially gain exclusive federal rights to it. This could create complications for your continued use of the name. I'd be happy to discuss your options and help you take the appropriate steps to protect your business identity-feel free to give me a call or respond to my email so we can go over everything together.

Best regards,
