E-Commerce and Marketplace IP
Since the advent of online marketplace platforms, e-commerce has become a popular and accessible way for individuals and businesses to reach consumers worldwide. Nevertheless, the growth of e-commerce has created significant intellectual property issues that affect those conducting business over the Internet. This is demonstrated by the ever-increasing number of patent, trademark, and copyright infringement lawsuits filed by and against companies that market and sell products over the Internet.
Our attorneys at Leydig understand the unique IP challenges that businesses may face in the e-commerce space. For example, entrepreneurs may find that their trademarks have been misappropriated and infringed by another on the Internet. Or they may be facing accusations of trademark infringement in court. We can help sellers and innovators navigate these challenges. By choosing Leydig, businesses benefit from a team that boasts an impressive combination of legal and technological backgrounds. Above all, we are seasoned litigators passionate about IP and e-commerce and have extensive experience in representing plaintiffs and defendants in IP disputes.
