Claims and notices

If a marketplace administrator complaint did not result in a block, or you want to recover damages from the violator — the next step is a pre-trial claim.

Claims and notices
Work stages
  • Preparation of a legally justified claim
  • Collection and preparation of evidence
  • Negotiations with the violator
  • Achievement of settlement agreements

The larger the offending company, the higher the likelihood of a pre-trial settlement. Legal risks and reputational losses often outweigh the cost of compensation.

Possibility of out-of-court settlement. Compliance with the pre-trial procedure to file a lawsuit in court.

Rights protection algorithm

Claim

We send a demand letter to the violator. This often allows settling the situation peacefully: the violator ceases activities and pays compensation.

2
Evidence collection

At the same time, we fix all facts of violation: photographs, screenshots, test purchases, examination results. The completeness of evidence determines the outcome of the case.

3
Court proceedings

If pre-trial settlement fails — we prepare and file a lawsuit. We represent your interests at all stages of the process.

Result

Court decision prohibiting the use of the trademark and/or recovery of damages from the violator
