: The case:

: I've a federal registered trademark for "FOOBAR". Someone has applied to trademark "FOO2BAR" (the 2 in the middle of the words acts as a shortcut for the article "to").

: They describe their mark as related to applications or software that manages employee performance - I offer web design services.

: Their case is still pending so I don't know whether it will be registered or not.

: Can I effectively oppose their trademark as very similarly confusing to mine, even though our industries don't exactly overlap?

Dear The One,
Maybe. There are otherings that might be effective and less espensive.
