Disputes in the Field of Intellectual Property

In today’s business environment, enterprises must ensure the proper protection of intellectual property objects, which are utilized to enhance the commercial appeal of goods or services. Currently, issues of protecting trademark rights (including for further conclusion of commercial concession/franchising agreements) or a manufacturer’s efforts to counteract the distribution of counterfeit products that undermine their market reputation are particularly relevant.

Naturally, a business cannot anticipate every possible risk of unlawful use by third parties of the property and/or non-property intellectual property rights, which are inviolable rights of their owners. Consequently, businesses may unwillingly become involved in disputes regarding the infringement of intellectual property rights. Meanwhile, staying up to date with the active legislative developments in this field, as the law regularly changes, poses a significant challenge.

The experience of the “First Legal” Law Firm shows that the most common intellectual property disputes include:

• Disputes concerning unauthorized use of marks for goods and services by third parties without appropriate authorization;
