			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>When you put your blood, sweat and tears into something that you&#8217;re passionate about, the worst thing to do is see it COPY AND PASTED on someone else&#8217;s website where they are reaping the benefits of your BRAND. Or imagine seeing that someone had an event with your name on it and got PAID FOR YOUR IDEA OR CONCEPT! Yes, this happens everyday since, there are many people out there who are not creative to come up with their own company names, logos, or concept so they take from others. All hope is not lost and you can protect yourself. (<strong><em>Sorry, do I sound bitter? Well, it&#8217;s happenend to me more than once!) ~ let it go Simone, let it go~ LOL </em></strong></p>
<p>My attorney, Patricia Lawrence-Kolaras is definitely one of the most powerful and important people on the Own Your Power team, because she cares about what I do and wants to make sure I am the only one benefiting from it. I say this to say because yes, I have seen a few OWN YOUR POWER copycats out there and because of Patricia they get SHUT DOWN withing 20 minutes of talking to them. ~ The crowd roars~ LOL</p>
<p>Own Your Power is protected by a FEDERAL TRADEMARK. No one wants to end up in FEDERAL COURT so, they handle it they way it should be. Pay a licensing fee and take down whatever they had up that was infringing on my trademark. The best part is I don&#8217;t have to do anything. Patricia handles the dirty work and I think she loves it. <img src='http://ownyourpower.biz/blog/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-765" title="patricialawrence_small" src="http://ownyourpower.biz/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/patricialawrence_small.jpg" alt="patricialawrence_small" width="200" height="220" />Don&#8217;t let the cute face fool you, Patricia scares the pants off of folks. ~Evil Laugh~ She is my Branding and Trademark Attorney attorney and if you want her on your team, you need to call her for a COMPLIMENTARY CONSULTATION, but you have to say Simone sent you! If your brand is YOUR BABY, then don&#8217;t let anyone else STEAL IT. Protect it the right way.</p>
