Expertise
Combating unfair competition is understood as the agile handling of the following areas: competition law, intellectual property, consumer and personal data legislation and anti-trust regulations. And this at both national and EU level. We support companies from the heavy industry, FMCG, financial institutions, as well as the broadly defined media and advertising.
We also have extensive experience in the retail and e-commerce sectors. We comprehensively support websites and online shops, mobile applications and marketplaces. We also review marketing communications aimed at consumers.

Experience
We provide comprehensive protection of the company's know-how - from providing opinions on contracts, specialisation agreements, through support in shaping sales strategies, to proceedings before common courts, the President of the Office for Competition and Consumer Protection or the European Commission.
Legal activities against counterfeiting
We assisted one of the best known and most frequently copied Polish designers. The cases concerned disputes with manufacturers and distributors of clothing imitating his original designs and unlawfully using the designer’s brand to increase their sales, positioning and self-promotion.
Imitation
We represented a press publisher in a dispute with another publisher alleging unfair competition in the form of imitation of a newspaper layout, as well as infringement of intellectual property rights. We undertook litigation at the stage of precautionary proceedings and before the court of first instance. The case ended with a settlement satisfactory for the client.
Dispute between two publishers regarding copyright and unfair competition
One of the competing publishers claimed damages from our client. He alleged that he had committed an act of unfair competition by using artistic, literary and editorial solutions that make up the layout of a publishing series. In the proceedings, we were able to prove that the client had not infringed on any rights and had acted in accordance with all publishing industry practices. This was a precedent-setting case in terms of setting standards for interactions between publishers, as well as cooperation between publishers and authors.
