Stolen Intellectual Property
Silverseal has a worldwide network of legal experts and IP investigators committed to protecting your intellectual property rights.
Intellectual property is property from original creative thought, such as trademarks, copyrighted material, and patents. Victims of intellectual property theft often lose money as well as their reputation as a brand owner and their consumer following. Stolen intellectual property or intellectual property theft goes by many names, including:
- Piracy
- Bootlegging
- Counterfeiting
Trademark Infringement
Trademark infringement is a violation of the exclusive rights a trademark owner has been provided by law, such as when a company or individual uses a similar or identical logo as one owned by another party.
At Silverseal, our emphasis is on identifying the problem, locating the distribution channels, and working with local law enforcement agencies to provide long-term solutions.
Product Counterfeiting Investigations
When products are diverted or counterfeited from their legitimate distribution systems, the financial implications to a company’s reputation can be insurmountable.
Silverseal regularly and proactively conducts product counterfeiting investigations to adequately protect an organization’s brand assets, intellectual property, and products.
Product Piracy
Brand piracy refers to the falsifying of company products. There are many different categories of brand piracy common in the market, including:
- Counterfeiting: Although the same trademark may be present on the label, products are altered.
- Outright piracy: A product uses the same trademark as the brand name and is essentially the same. Unlike the original, the trademark is false.
- Reverse engineering: A product’s composition and construction is copied, manufactured, and sold on the market, often at low prices.
Silverseal protects organizations and their products by investigating and prosecuting piracy in every corner of the world.
