Enforcement against counterfeit

Counterfeit goods damage brand value, revenues and reputation. Worldwide, this amounts to billions in losses every year. Successful anti-counterfeiting requires a tailored approach: every trademark owner or other IP rights holder has their own market, distribution chain and risk profile. Our team Intellectual Property and Anti-Counterfeiting helps rights holders, manufacturers and distributors to protect their brands and products.

Why choose LXA?

Due to the scale and cross-border nature of counterfeit trade, we work closely with international experts, investigators, fellow lawyers and corporate specialists. We maintain close contacts with customs, police and other investigative services and know all the ins and outs of enforcement.

We have over 25 years of experience and are actively involved in international brand protection networks (including ECTA and the Unifab College of Experts). With a proven approach, we can act quickly and purposefully, both online and offline. We work cost-effectively with pre-agreed prices and strive to have infringers bear our costs, making our programme largely self-funding for many clients. Our Brand Protection Road Map provides insight into our approach in one clear audiovisual animation.
