U.S. Trademark Attorney Needed – Prior Use vs Later Registration (Domain + Brand Conflict)

Estimated cost and process for filing a trademark application and/or taking action (e.g., opposition, cancellation, or defense). Additional (Optional):We may also seek advice on U.S. advertising compliance as it relates to branding and marketing under this name.
