Unfair Competition

We see a lot of businesses come into our office with problems with their brand or product. Unfair competition normally deals with torts that are meant to confuse customers. Unfair competition doesn’t refer to the economic harm with monopolies and antitrust legislation. The unfair act is based upon the context of the business, the action being examined, and the facts of the case. Trademark infringement and misappropriation are the most common areas dealing with unfair competition. Call Green Legal Group to discuss your business and to determine what your legal rights are.

How the Law Helps You!

If unfair competition is impacting your business, our goal is to prove this claim to a judge in a court of law. If proven, a judge will issue an injunction stopping wrongful activity and will order your competition to pay economic injuries.

The Federal Trade Commission was established to protect consumers from deceptive trade practices. If there is a conflict between the federal and state law related to the FTC, state law is normally pre-empted.
