Unfair Competition Law
Advertisement can be unfair or misleading, for instance if it disparages a competitor or if a company asserts being market leader which in fact is not the case. Competitors and consumer protection associations can attack a company which infringes unfair competition law by means of a cease and desist letter, a temporary injunction or a legal action asking for injunction and damages. In order to avoid becoming subject to an unfair competition claim itself, advertisements, catalogues and press releases should be legally reviewed and approved upfront.Our services:
