Design infringement

Product design plays a key role in the highly competitive retail market. This explains the fairly aggressive stance towards competitors whose designs look similar to protected designs, including in cases where the design is more than just an exact copy. If an infringement proceeding was filed against your business, it is of utmost importance to assess the chances of success in a first step. The next step involves the decision on how to proceed further: seek an amicable settlement, defend against the claim or even consider changing the product’s design if necessary and possible.
