The Question

What should I do if my trademark is being infringed?

1 Answer from Verified Lawyers

If another person or business is using your registered trademark without authorization, you should first collect evidence of the infringement, including photographs, advertisements, invoices, website screenshots, or product samples.

You should then issue a legal cease-and-desist notice demanding that the infringing party stop using the mark. If the infringement continues, you may file a civil suit seeking an injunction, damages, and delivery-up of infringing goods under the Trade Marks Act, 1999. In certain cases involving falsification or counterfeiting, criminal remedies may also be available.

Early legal action is advisable, as delay may weaken your position.
