A nightclub in California stole my artwork and is using it as their company logo. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Back in 2007 I drew [this](http://pleasenojunkthanks.deviantart.com/#/dz6z35) and uploaded it to Deviantart.com. Since then I have lost the original. A few months ago I read a comment on my page mentioning that a nightclub in San Diego called Voyeur is using the image as their company logo, so I checked out their [website](http://www.donotlink.com/tT) (link going through DoNotLink as was suggested earlier) and sure enough I saw my drawing all over the page, though the cigarette had been shopped out. [Here's a link to the Yelp page, which has a clearer picture of the image](http://www.donotlink.com/tU). I told some friends about this who suggested that I get a contingency lawyer that would take the case with no down payment. Between taking care of my daughter and helping her mother out financially I definitely could not afford to hire a lawyer. I looked around for a contingency lawyer in the San Francisco Bay Area but could only find ones who strictly dealt with injuries. Eventually I decided to just email the company and ask them to buy the rights to the drawing, saying that I'd be willing to sell it at a very cheap price. The owner then replied asking for proof of ownership, to which I replied with the link to my page, showing the copyright 2007-2012 statement underneath the image, along with a link to Deviantart's copyright policy. He then replied with the following email: *"Mr Richards:* *Regarding your response I do not believe that web links show proof of ownership.* *If you could please forward documentation from the U.S. copyright office it would be greatly appreciated."* Not sure what to try next, but I've seen Reddit help people out before so I figured I'd give this a shot.
