Olshan’s Litigation Group has an impressive record of success in prosecuting and defending intellectual property cases in federal and state courts and false advertising claims in court and before the National Advertising Division of the Better Business Bureau.
An Experienced Team
Our Litigation Group has extensive experience litigating intellectual property claims. Supported by the highly specialized experience of our Intellectual Property, Advertising, Marketing & Promotions, and Employment Practices Groups, we possess the skill set needed to build the strongest case to achieve success. We have favorably resolved claims of trademark, trade dress, copyright and design patent infringement, counterfeiting, false advertising, misappropriation of trade secrets and breaches of restrictive covenants in employment agreements.
In addition, leading manufacturers and members of the fashion industry regularly call on us to enforce their rights against counterfeiters. Olshan has brought many cases against counterfeiters, procuring numerous injunctions and seizure orders against them, and recovering monetary damages for our clients.
Protection of intellectual property rights is often time-sensitive making swift action necessary. Olshan’s litigators are very experienced in filing motions for preliminary injunctions to stop infringers in their tracks and have litigated many types of disputes on very short notice. Our experience extends well beyond the preliminary injunction stage, through trial and appeals, when necessary. Our Litigation Group often tries a number of significant matters each year and its leading partners have cumulatively tried more than 50 cases to judges or juries.
The Approach
We promptly evaluate our client’s rights and the likelihood of success, assemble a team of attorneys appropriate to the demands of the case, and develop and execute a litigation strategy under tight time constraints. Further, we have developed relationships with many well-regarded leading experts who we call on to testify for our clients. These relationships are especially important because expert testimony often proves critical to winning an intellectual property case.
