Detailed, practical analysis of the full range of federal and state trademark infringement remedies.
Main Volume Information
A trademark is often a company’s most valuable asset because it identifies and distinguishes the source, origin, and quality of the company’s services and products in the marketplace. To maintain a trademark’s value, owners must vigorously defend and protect their brands against tarnishment, infringement, and misappropriation by others. Trademark Infringement Remedies provides owners and their counsel with the up-to-date information they need to do this effectively.
This valuable reference gives practitioners complete and authoritative coverage of all aspects of trademark rights, liabilities, and remedies in both traditional and emerging forms of trademark use and abuse. The treatise includes detailed analyses of the federal, state, and common law remedies available; thorough information on how to secure injunctive relief for clients and how to protect the value of their trademarks; complete coverage of the monetary relief available to trademark owners; and the full scope of available remedies, including attorneys’ fees, special enforcement remedies, state law remedies, remedies for counterfeit goods, and more.
