IP Disputes

Introduction

Litigation concerning Intellectual property (“IP”) rights is typically considered to fall under one of the important areas in litigation for corporations. Such lawsuits are important not only for plaintiffs, but also for defendants, as losing lawsuits on injunctions against infringements can result in significant damages, such as the cessation of operations. Additionally, litigation involving trade secrets, trademarks, and design rights often are of considerable importance in corporate activities.
