Archwell Office Raided by Beverly Hills Police, Exposing Troubling Details

The Archwell office found itself in a precarious situation as it was abruptly shut down during a surprise raid conducted by the Beverly Hills Police.

What adds to the mystery is the revelation that this office was linked to a seemingly non-existent company, operating without any visible staff.

Meghan Markle and Prince Harry faced a significant setback in their endeavor to trademark Archwell in the United States.

Their trademark application hit a roadblock due to its vague nature and the absence of their signatures, coupled with the failure to complete all necessary fees.

According to documents obtained by The Sun, the trademark application was submitted on March 3 under the name of Cobblestone Lane, LLC, a company registered in Delaware but associated with the Beverly Hills offices of a well-known Hollywood personality who has collaborated with Meghan in the past.

However, a surprising turn of events unfolded when government officials investigated the Beverly Hills office only to find it completely deserted, devoid of employees, computers, or any official documents, painting the picture of a phantom company.

Further complicating matters, French journalists who ventured into the vacant Beverly Hills office space discovered that there had never been any staff present to handle any administrative tasks.

A recorded video of their visit portrayed Archwell as a project potentially involved in dubious financial activities.

Despite this, Prince Harry did not appear to funnel substantial funds into the venture, instead opting to take on roles in other organizations with questionable backgrounds, such as BetterUp, without drawing connections to his successful Invictus initiative.

An examiner assigned to review their trademark application on May 26 issued an irregularity notice from the U.S. Department of Commerce, pointing out a myriad of errors.

These errors included the lack of clarity in their plans, prompting the couple's attorney, Marjorie Winter Norman, to make necessary amendments by August 22 to avoid the application being discarded.

Additionally, the International Bureau deemed the list of goods and services associated with the non-profit too ambiguous for proper classification.

The notice also emphasized the need for clarification regarding the content displayed on their website, particularly in relation to philanthropy, financial contributions, volunteer opportunities, career prospects, and International Class 35.

Meghan and Harry were also instructed to pay additional processing fees for their application.

On June 2, a non-final action was issued, allowing the trademark to remain inactive until the required modifications were submitted.

The examiner pointed out that the initial application lacked a signature, rendering it improperly verified, a mistake that was later rectified.

It is worth noting that even meticulously prepared trademark applications may face initial rejection by the US Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO), with approximately one in five applications failing their first examination.

In a separate development, the Archwell Foundation's tax filings for 2021 were leaked to the public, revealing that less than a quarter of its income was allocated to charitable causes.
