Trademark & Unfair Competition Litigation
Attorneys in our Trademark & Unfair Competition Litigation practice recognize the importance that a company’s brand, image, and reputation play in a global economy, and regularly assist clients in protecting and defending their brand, reputation, and proprietary business information against exploitation, infringement, and misappropriation.
Our experienced attorneys have litigated trademark infringement, trademark dilution, and unfair competition claims under the Lanham Act and numerous state statutes, as well as false advertising, trade dress, service mark, and trade secret claims in state and federal courts throughout the United States. Given the need to expeditiously protect brands in the marketplace, we are adept in seeking and obtaining temporary restraining orders, preliminary and permanent injunctions, and declaratory judgments.
We regularly represent clients in trademark opposition and cancellation proceedings before the Trademark Trial and Appeal Board of the US Patent and Trademark Office, as well as in Uniform Domain Name Dispute Resolution proceedings. Our experience also extends to proceedings in front of regulatory and foreign tribunals, such as the International Trade Commission and the European Community Trademark Office.
