What is Intellectual Property Law
“Intellectual Property” has emerged as one of the major wealth generators in the current global trade as a result of the rapid globalization and liberalization of the Indian economy. The importance of intellectual property rights has considerably increased in India’s legal landscape, as seen by recent statutes and judicial rulings. The Agreement on Trade-Related Aspects of Intellectual Property Rights (TRIPS) and the World Trade Organisation (“WTO”) were both ratified by India. In terms of intellectual property (IP) protection, Indian laws, enforcement clauses, and dispute resolution procedures are now fully TRIPS compliant. Intellectual property infringement has become a serious concern for multinational corporations, start-ups, and companies. Intellectual property law protects intangible assets; thus, the protection comes across as one of the most essential elements of the security of assets.
Types of Intellectual Property Services Provided by Our Lawyers
Patent infringement
When a person or company makes use of a patented concept, procedure, or device in part without authorization, it is engaging in one of the many types of patent infringement. Other names for patent infringement include patent violation and even stolen ideas. It can entail making use of or offering for sale the patented creation or concept.
Trademark infringement
Unauthorised use of a brand or service mark is known as trademark infringement. This application, which might be in relation to products or services, could cause misunderstandings, deception, or confusion regarding the true source of a good or service.
Copyright infringement
Copyright infringement happens when someone uses the exclusive rights of the work’s creator without authorization. This covers all distribution methods (such as retailing, broadcasting, performing, etc.), as well as any adaptation or other copies of the work.
Trade secret misappropriation
Misappropriation is the term used to describe the theft of trade secrets. It happens when someone improperly obtains, discloses, or uses a trade secret without authorization or with awareness that knowledge of the trade secret was obtained accidentally or by mistake.
Domain name disputes
There are many different sorts of domain name conflicts, including typosquatting, reverse domain name hijacking, cyber twins, and cyber squatters.
False advertising
False advertising is information that is presented to you that is inaccurate or deceptive in an effort to persuade you to make a purchase or visit their business. Those who produce and sell goods must be upfront with you about their goods, services, and costs.
Counterfeiting
A crime called counterfeiting involves stealing a person’s trademark. Trademarks are used by companies of all sizes to make it easier for customers like you to recognise their goods.
Cybersecurity breaches
Other incident where personally identifiable information is accessed or potentially accessed by someone other than an authorised user, including loss of control, compromise, unauthorised disclosure, unauthorised acquisition, or other similar occurrence.
Licensing disputes
You lose some control over the assets involved when licencing, even with the safest of contracts. This raises the possibility of infringement because licensees might not be as meticulous or strict about protecting your IP.
Right of publicity violations
When a plaintiff’s identity is improperly used for commercial gain, the right to publicity is broken. When the defendant uses the plaintiff’s identify to advertise the purchase of goods, services, or fundraising, this is referred to as a commercial usage.
