Overview

Understanding Trademark Investigation

Enforcement is only as strong as its evidence. Before a notice or suit, a discreet investigation establishes who is infringing, where, at what scale, and through which supply chain — turning suspicion into court-ready proof. This is the foundation of a successful injunction, criminal raid or Customs recordal. Our investigators conduct market visits and trap purchases, monitor e-commerce and social platforms, and map manufacturers, distributors and retailers — preserving evidence with proper protocol and chain of custody, and delivering an investigation report ready for annexure in proceedings.
