Crowdfunding and Breaches of Trademark and Patent Rights
We frequently undertake investigations regarding crowdfunding. The cases normally center on breaches of either patents and/or trademarks. Normally our clients seek firstly to protect their intellectual property, secondly to bring attention to the issues as a warning to the investors, this is important because once proceedings are issued the companies seeking crowdfunding would be legally required to inform both the platform and the investors.
Clearly investors would be very wary if they are aware that the company they are funding could suffer severe future losses due to litigation, this is especially the case if it can be proven that the company knowingly breached our clients IP rights.
