I will draft a cease and desist letter for unfair competition or trade secrets
Licensed US Attorney Commercial Litigation, Business Disputes
About this Gig
I am Daniel James Gomez, a licensed U.S. attorney (Bar No. #310796), and I draft corporate cease and desist letters that put businesses, former employees, and competitors on immediate, formal legal notice and force them to stop.
I draft C&D letters for:
- Trade secret misappropriation (DTSA & state law)
- Unfair competition and predatory business practices
- Breach of NDA and confidentiality agreements
- Non-compete and non-solicitation violations
- Employee raiding and tortious interference
- False advertising and business defamation
Every letter includes:
- Precise legal language citing applicable federal and state statutes
- Identification of each specific violation with legal basis
- Firm compliance deadline with explicit legal consequences stated
- Enforcement memo with litigation options
- Litigation risk analysis and follow-up strategy
Why it works: An attorney-drafted C&D from a licensed U.S. attorney creates formal legal notice, demonstrates litigation readiness, and resolves most violations before court.
Message me with your situation before ordering and I will confirm the right package immediately.

FAQ
What types of corporate violations can your cease and desist letter address?
I draft corporate C&D letters for: trade secret misappropriation under the Defend Trade Secrets Act (DTSA) and state law, unfair competition and predatory business practices, breach of NDA and confidentiality agreements, non-compete and non-solicitation violations, employee raiding.
Does a cease and desist letter have real legal force?
While a C&D letter is not a court order, it is a formal legal document from a licensed U.S. attorney that puts the recipient on official notice of their liability and your intent to litigate. It creates a documented legal record, triggers preservation obligations for evidence.
Can you draft a C&D for a former employee who misappropriated trade secrets?
Yes and this is one of the most time-critical situations I handle. Every day that passes allows further misappropriation, disclosure to competitors, or destruction of evidence.
What is the enforcement memo included in the Standard and Premium packages?
The enforcement memo is a written legal analysis that goes beyond the C&D letter. It outlines your specific legal rights under federal and state law, identifies every available legal remedy including emergency injunctions, compensatory damages, punitive damages, and attorney fee recovery.
Will the letter cite specific federal and state laws and statutes?
Yes, always — and this is what separates an attorney-drafted C&D from any template or non-attorney document. Every letter I draft cites the precise statutory authority violated — including the Defend Trade Secrets Act (DTSA), the Uniform Trade Secrets Act (UTSA), applicable state unfair competition
