- Don't sue yet.
- A lawyer will probably charge around $500 for an official-seeming "demand and request to cure" letter. This is your next step. You shouldn't need to pay a retainer fee for this.
- If they don't respond to the letter, or don't address the issue in a satisfactory way, then your next move is to sue them, if you feel you must. In your complaint, you'll reference all communications you sent them previously. You can sue in your home state, as that's where you're located and Facebook evidently does business there. This is going to be expensive; your business cannot represent itself in court, so you must hire a lawyer. If you see it all the way through to trial, an uncomplicated state court case will cost, on average, somewhere in the low six figures in attorney fees; Federal cases are twice as expensive -- probably around $400k on the low end.
This is what you get for not having your own website and depending on Facebook for your web presence.
Aren't businesses allowed to refuse service to individuals?
PS: I mailed letter and a printout of my trademark from the USPTO to Facebook today via certified mail. I am pretty sure they won't react.
Ask a lawyer to draft some legalese and you might read up on their arbitration policies.
You need legal insurance.
This sounds interesting:
