Trademark Infringement: Counterfeiting

Represented Fendi, a division of LVMH, in a trademark infringement action against a major discount retailer, arising out of the defendant retailer’s alleged sale of counterfeit Fendi handbags, wallets, and other accessories in its warehouse stores and alleged failure to take necessary and appropriate steps to ascertain the legitimacy of trademarked products it purchased from third-party suppliers.  The lawsuit was settled on favorable, but confidential, terms.
