Intellectual Property Litigation
Mandour & Associates is an aggressive intellectual property litigation law firm. We understand that being aggressive in IP litigation can be time consuming and expensive‚ so we keep each litigation matter as streamlined as possible by employing a trial-focused strategy. In other words‚ from the moment we are hired we determine what will be necessary to win the case at trial and then throughout the matter we stay focused on only that.
We often see wasted time and money in IP litigation because the other side lacks the experience or good sense necessary to say “we don’t need to take this deposition” or “we don’t need to win this battle to win the war.” Because we regularly litigate intellectual property infringements throughout Los Angeles‚ Orange County and San Diego‚ we know the most effective strategies to resolve these cases as efficiently as possible. We do what is necessary to win the case at trial‚ nothing more‚ and nothing less.
We handle all types of IP litigation – trademark litigation‚ copyright litigation, patent litigation‚ unfair competition‚ trade dress litigation‚ and trade secret litigation – and any other business conflicts or ownership disputes that arise from the case. We are highly experienced with Amazon related cases, and we are also a preeminent law firm with respect to Trademark Trial and Appeal Board litigation. To view the over 400 Trademark Trial and Appeal Board cases that we have handled, you may click here.
We have litigated hundreds of intellectual property cases including high stakes matters and infringements involving billion dollar companies such as Party City, American Airlines, Calvin Klein‚ Wal-Mart‚ and Disney. We are top notch litigators willing to create whatever result is in the best interest of our client. Below are some of the results that we have achieved for our clients.
