ANTI-COUNTERFEITING
A brand owner’s success increasingly depends on his/her ability to protect the brand’s intellectual property (IP) assets and reputation. From innovative kitchen gadgets to outdoor equipment to pet care products, counterfeit products often represent an incalculable cost to a client’s reputation and can result in permanent damage to a brand if not handled properly.
We help owners, sellers and inventors stop online counterfeiting and fight against counterfeit goods. Our attorneys are results-driven and have successfully shutdown thousands of online sellers for our clients around the globe.
Developed a product?
Did you start selling a product online with some success and then almost overnight see other products (that look like your product) pop-up on platforms like Amazon and Alibaba? Are these sellers using your likeness, your images or your branding? Have you seen your sales decline, or is there customer confusion on what is authentic? Have you received complaints about a product that wasn’t yours?
That’s counterfeiting and we can help stop it.
If online hijackers are selling counterfeits of your product, we can immediately institute action on your behalf. We develop customized anti-counterfeiting strategies and protect you and your brand from intellectual property violations.

Why E-Commerce Platforms Have Become an Ideal Storefront for Counterfeit Products And Intellectual Property Theft?
E-Commerce Platforms such as Amazon, Alibaba and eBay, for example, provide a space for counterfeiters to connect with potential customers at a low cost. Most counterfeiters falsely represent themselves by:
- Using the brand or product name.
- Taking photos, videos and/or messaging from the seller’s website.
- Implementing a bait & switch technique – marketing themselves as an authentic product at a reduced price and then shipping counterfeit products that are poorly manufactured and unsafe.
- The FBI estimates that U.S. businesses lose between $200 billion and $250 billion each year to counterfeiting.
