FAQ
Intellectual property infringement occurs when unauthorised use, reproduction, distribution, or exploitation of your intellectual property rights takes place without the your permission.
Intellectual property can include inventions, trademarks, copyrights, patents, and industrial designs. Infringement can involve copying copyrighted works, using similar trademarks, manufacturing and selling patented inventions, or reproducing protected designs. To establish an intellectual property infringement claim, it is essential to demonstrate that the infringing party has unlawfully used or exploited your protected intellectual property rights.
If you believe your intellectual property rights have been infringed then start by collecting evidence to support your claim, including proof of ownership of the intellectual property rights, examples of the infringing activities, and any correspondence or agreements related to your intellectual property.
You can then consider sending a cease and desist letter to the infringing business, demanding that they stop the infringing activities immediately. Clearly outline the intellectual property rights being infringed, provide evidence of the infringement, and specify the actions required to remedy the situation.
