[Consultation] Sending a certified letter regarding trademark infringement and unfair competition.

Law firm Veat received a request from a client whose company received a notification of claim due to trademark infringement and unfair competition, and subsequently sent a rebuttal notification of claim regarding the aforementioned notification of claim.

The client received a notification of claim from B Co. regarding trademark infringement and unfair competition, and inquired about Veat’s response plan. Accordingly, Veat promptly sent a rebuttal notification of claim to the client, stating that B Co. had not infringed its trademark and had not engaged in unfair competition, and that the problematic content had already been deleted from the client’s website.

Thanks to Veat’s swift rebuttal notification of claim and guidance on the response plan, the client was fortunately able to avoid a more serious situation. It is highly recommended to consult with a legal professional regarding responses to notifications of claim, as these may serve as evidence in a subsequent lawsuit.

Thank you.
