"This isn’t just about trade marks. It’s about access to justice, fair competition, and your right to grow."
Every small business, start-up or independent entrepreneur deserves to operate without fear of intimidation, exploitation, or unnecessary legal attacks. By that same token, the bigger players out there should not fear being leveraged.
Trade mark bullying is more than a legal tactic; it’s a barrier to fair competition, a threat to innovation, and an attack on entrepreneurship.
Identify the Situation
If you believe you are being targeted by an adversary using oppressive or disproportionate IP litigation tactics, please contact us so we can review the situation. Trade mark bullying can take many forms, including:
◉ Unjustified threats
◉ Overly harsh or aggressive cease and desist letters with unreasonable undertakings
◉ Threatened oppositions where no relevant earlier rights exist
◉ Frivolous opposition or cancellation actions being filed
◉ Appeals with minimal prospects of success brought solely to exert financial pressure
◉ Certain claims filed in the Intellectual Property Enterprise Court
◉ Trade mark hijacking (UK or internationally)
◉ Domain name hijacking
◉ Tenuous or baseless domain name complaints
◉ Social media take downs or misuse of reporting systems
