ILLUSTRATIVE MATTERS
How these situations can unfold
Illustrative scenarios, not actual case studies. The situations below are fictional examples created to explain our approach. They do not describe clients, completed engagements, outcomes or verified experience.
Brand name used by a local seller
A foreign consumer brand discovers a similar mark on goods sold through Chinese online channels.
Possible approach: Potential approach: verify rights and registrations, preserve listings and sales evidence, then assess platform, administrative or court remedies.
Product design copied by a supplier
A company discovers a competing product resembling its original industrial design after sharing drawings with a manufacturing partner.
Possible approach: Potential approach: examine contracts and ownership, compare design rights and evidence, then consider registration or enforcement options.
Technology licensing uncertainty
A technology company wants to license know-how to a Chinese partner but is concerned about confidentiality and downstream use.
Possible approach: Potential approach: map protected assets, review licensing restrictions, confidentiality provisions and dispute mechanisms.
