Unfair Competition

We assist entrepreneurs in disputes concerning unfair competition: from the slavish imitation of products, to commercial denigration, parasitic imitation, deception and misleading and comparative advertising comparison, to the - more particular - cases of boycott, dumping, transfer of employees and agents and, in general, against any other improper attempt to appropriate the goodwill of others.

We have in the past assisted:

• several entrepreneurs assessing the unfair competition risk when departing from their current employer to create a new venture

• a major Italian Steel company for the appropriation of their protected know how by an unfaithful employee

• a tobacco company for unfair competition acts by an employee.
