Fast Relief for IP Infringement

 

International Trade Commission Section 337 Investigations

The U.S. International Trade Commission can block the importation of articles into the U.S. that have been found violating patents, copyrights, trademarks, or trade secrets.

For IP Owners:

Are cheap, imported knock-offs killing the market for your IP-protected products? If so, the ITC can stop those infringing products at the border and save your business. The ITC can block importers even if we cannot locate the specific source of the goods.
